Linkage disequilibrium and recent selection at three immunity receptor loci in Drosophila simulans.

Genetics - 1 Apr 2005

Schlenke Todd A, Begun David J

Abstract excerpt

Immune system genes in a California population sample of Drosophila simulans were shown to bear several hallmarks of the effects of past directional selection. One potential effect of directional selection is an increase in linkage disequilibrium among the polymorphic sites that are linked to the site under selection. In this study, we focus on three D. simulans immunity loci, Hmu, Sr-CI/Sr-CIII, and Tehao, for...
