Population genomics of finless porpoises reveal an incipient cetacean species adapted to freshwater
Whales, dolphins and porpoises are adapted to various aquatic habitats. Here, Zhou et al. show that polymorphisms associated with renal function and the urea cycle have undergone selection in the freshwater Yangtze finless porpoise and provide genomic evidence of incipient speciation.
