Résumé
Pigmentation variation in the polytypic brown trout (Salmo trutta) has an unknown genomic basis. Using redundancy analyses and genome-wide association studies, authors showed that pigmentation has a large polygenic basis in this species, based on hundreds of loci known to be associated to colour. Redundancy analysis also showed that backcrossed wild trout converged to a locally adaptive Mediterranean pigmentation pattern despite the release of Atlantic hatchery fish.
