Extensive local adaptation within the chemosensory system following Drosophila melanogaster’s global expansion
Fruit flies gain valuable information about their environment by sensing chemicals. Here, Arguello et al. show strong signals of recent selection on the chemosensory system of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, consistent with the adaptation of populations to their local chemical environment.
