“…Given that climate change has strong selective effects on climate‐related traits, it is of interest to explore the genetic basis of adaptation in amphibians to better comprehend the evolutionary mechanisms responsible for climate variation (Funk et al., 2018; Sun et al., 2020). Recent advancements in DNA sequencing technology, especially the high‐throughput sequencing in late 2000s, have opened up novel opportunities to investigate amphibian evolution and adaptation through genetic structure and gene function analysis (Jin et al., 2023; Khan et al., 2016; Liedtke et al., 2018; McCartney‐Melstad et al., 2016; Nowoshilow et al., 2018; Shaffer et al., 2015). In a genome‐scan of 10 geographically diverse Microhyla fissipes populations, researchers identified 69 annual average temperature related single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 248 precipitation related SNPs (Jin et al., 2022).…”
