A microsatellite-based multilocus screen for the identification of local selective sweeps.

Genetics - 1 Feb 2002

Schlötterer Christian

Abstract excerpt

With the availability of completely sequenced genomes, multilocus scans of natural variability have become a feasible approach for the identification of genomic regions subjected to natural and artificial selection. Here, I introduce a new multilocus test statistic, ln RV, which is based on the ratio of observed variances in repeat number at a set of microsatellite loci in two groups of populations. The...
