Genomic Convergence

Genomic Convergence is a molecular evolutionary phenomenon in which distantly related species independently acquire identical or functionally analogous genetic changes as a result of adaptation to similar selective pressures, thereby distinguishing it from phenotypic convergence that may arise without underlying genetic similarity.
