Environmentally robust cis-regulatory changes underlie rapid climatic adaptation

M. A. Ballinger, K. L. Mack, S. M. Durkin, E. A. Riddell, M. W. Nachman

This study identifies cis-regulatory divergence as a major driver of adaptive gene expression changes in house mice across thermal environments, with trans-effects contributing to plasticity.

The contribution of genetic and environmental effects to Bergmanns rule and Allens rule in house mice

M. A. Ballinger, M. W. Nachman

This study investigates the genetic and environmental contributions to Bergmanns and Allens rules in house mice, finding that body size is largely genetic while extremities show environmental plasticity.
