Testing for Associations between Loci and Environmental Gradients Using Latent Factor Mixed Models (2012, background): “In populations inhabiting spatially distinct environments, loci that underlie adaptive divergence can be detected by comparing relative levels of differentiation among large samples of unlinked markers [11, 12] and by using empirical tests to compare levels of differentiation to the genomic backgrou”

Fine-scale spatial and temporal genetic structure of Atlantic cod off the Atlantic coast of the USA (2010, background): “Adaptive divergence can occur over much shorter time scales than can neutral genetic differentiation (Endler 1986, Cano et al. 2008), resulting in genetic differentiation of a greater magnitude for selected versus neutral loci (Beaumont & Balding 2004).”
