Looking for the needle in a downsized haystack: Whole-exome sequencing unravels genomic signals of climatic adaptation in Douglas-fir (<i>Pseudotsuga menziesii</i>).

Nevertheless, when applied to the subset of 18 outlier SNPs, climate PC1 that relates strongly to the temperature regime at seed origin was at least moderately significant at α < 0.1, and therefore, we presume that testing these SNPs in a larger number of populations in landscape genomic studies could shed more light into adaptive population differentiation in Douglas‐fir. 4.4 Putative biological functions of candidate SNPs In total, 11 out of 18 SNPs were directly located either within known genes or in close proximity to those genes, which underline their biological importance.
