Discussion:
Comparing the results of three genome scans we found few similarities in
genomic patterns among species. Only the tubesnout and threespine had
similar genome-wide average FST and\({\overset{\overline{}}{H}}_{E}\)scores, but these similarities did not extend to gene-level patterns,
while comparison to the ninespine found no similarities at the
genome-wide or gene levels.. Additionally, we found contrasting genome
scan patterns for each species and no strong evidence to support
convergent evolution. This study highlights how the complexities of
evolutionary histories, such as genetic bottlenecks or gene flow from
unsampled habitats, can complicate the comparisons of genome scans.
