Fly populations evolving in treatments where Mate Competition (MC) occurs in a complex environment adapt faster and have lower inbreeding depression than those where MC is absent or occurs in a simple environment (Yun et al. 2018 PNAS)
Rare variants tend to be found in positive linkage disequilibrium (LD) and the strength of LD varies among site types (Sandler et al. 2021 MBE)
