TL;DR: It is shown that selection likely acts on distinct targets or multiple functionally equivalent alleles in different portions of the geographic range of wheat, suggesting either weak selection pressure or temporal variation in the targets of directional selection during breeding probably associated with changing agricultural practices or environmental conditions.
