Hidden genomic structure and widespread structural polymorphism across environmental gradients in the spiny sea star Marthasterias glacialis.

Genomic regions of reduced recombination can preserve linkage among co-adapted alleles, facilitating local adaptation despite high connectivity. Such regions-often generated by chromosomal inversions-may be especially important in highly dispersive marine taxa yet remain poorly documented in echinoderms. Here, we combi...
