De novo assembly of 4 killifish species and resequencing of additional Nothobranchiidae species and populations.
To uncover the selective forces shaping lifespan evolution, we investigate the genomicbasis underlying adaptations to seasonal habitat desiccation in African killifishes,identifying the genetic variants associated with positive and relaxed purifying selectionin 45 killifish species (4 reference genomes assembled) and 231 wild individuals distributed throughout sub-SaharanAfrica.
