## Abstract The ฯต4 allele of the apolipoprotein E (__APOE__) gene is associated with increased cholesterol levels and heart disease. Population allele frequencies of __APOE__ have previously been shown to vary, with ฯต4 frequencies generally increasing with latitude. We hypothesize that this trend r
The role of gene expression in evolutionary adaptation has been a subject of debate for over 40 years. cis-regulation of transcription has been proposed to be the primary source of morphological novelty in evolution, though this is based on only a handful of examples. Recently the first genome-wide
