The hitchhiking effect on linkage disequilibrium between linked neutral loci.

Genetics - 1 Apr 2006

Stephan Wolfgang, Song Yun S, Langley Charles H

Abstract excerpt

We analyzed a three-locus model of genetic hitchhiking with one locus experiencing positive directional selection and two partially linked neutral loci. Following the original hitchhiking approach by Maynard Smith and Haigh, our analysis is purely deterministic. In the first half of the selected phase after a favored mutation has entered the population, hitchhiking may lead to a strong increase of linkage...
