Evolutionary signals of selection on cognition from the great tit genome and methylome

Evolutionary signals of selection on cognition from the great tit genome and methylome

The great tit (Parus major) is known for its complex social-cognitive behaviour. Here, the authors sequence genomes of the great tit and show genes related to learning and cognition in regions under positive selection, as well as neuronal non-CpG methylation patterns similar to those observed in mam...
