Low genetic and phenotypic divergence in a contact zone between freshwater and marine sticklebacks: gene flow constrains adaptation

Abstract Background Distinct hybrid zones and phenotypic and genomic divergence is often observed between marine 6.12 and freshwater threespine sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus).Nevertheless, cases also exist where marine-freshwater divergence is diffuse despite seemingly similar environmental settings.In order to assess what characterizes thes
