Discriminating Selection on Lateral Plate Phenotype and Its Underlying Gene, Ectodysplasin, in Threespine Stickleback

When a signature of natural selection is discovered on a gene that is pleiotropic or in tight linkage with other genes, it is challenging to determine which of the affected phenotypes is under selection. One way to make progress is to employ methods for analyzing natural selection on correlated trai...
