Selection at linked sites in the partial selfer Caenorhabditis elegans.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 May 2003

Cutter Asher D, Payseur Bret A

Abstract excerpt

Natural selection can produce a correlation between local recombination rates and levels of neutral DNA polymorphism as a consequence of genetic hitchhiking and background selection. Theory suggests that selection at linked sites should affect patterns of neutral variation in partially selfing populations more dramatically than in outcrossing populations. However, empirical investigations of selection at linked...
