Allelic diversity of metallothionein in Orchesella cincta (L.): traces of natural selection by environmental pollution.

Heredity - 1 May 2007

Timmermans M J T N, Ellers J, Van Straalen N M

Abstract excerpt

The advances made in statistical methods to detect selection from DNA sequence variation has resulted in an enormous increase in the number of studies reporting positive selection. However, a disadvantage of such statistical tests is that often no insight into the actual source of selection is obtained. Finer understanding of evolution can be obtained when those statistical tests are combined with field...
