Abstract
Local adaptation contributes to plant colonization across extreme environmental gradients. Here, the authors reconstruct the colonization history of Lotus japonicus in Japan and identify extreme genetic signatures of local adaptation to a cold climate using genome resequencing and common garden experiments.
