The effects of genetic variation on the adaptive potential of species depend on the frequencies of alleles at other loci in the individual or in the population, and the patterns of spatio-temporal co-occurrence between alleles in interacting species. This Review explores these population and community genomic contexts and their direct and indirect effects on biodiversity, ecosystems and people.
