Abstract

We present the first global survey of selection acting on various functional properties in S. paradoxus. We found that selection pressures previously detected over long evolutionary timescales have also shaped the evolution of S. paradoxus. Importantly, we also make novel discoveries untenable via conventional interspecific analyses.
