Inferring the effects of demography and selection on Drosophila melanogaster populations from a chromosome-wide scan of DNA variation.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Oct 2005

Ometto Lino, Glinka Sascha, De Lorenzo David, Stephan Wolfgang

Abstract excerpt

Identifying regions of the Drosophila melanogaster genome that have been recent targets of positive Darwinian selection will provide evidence for adaptations that have helped this species to colonize temperate habitats. We have begun a search for such genomic regions by analyzing multiple loci (about 250) dispersed across the X chromosome in a putatively ancestral population from East Africa and a derived...
