Abstract excerpt
Differences in neutral diversity at different loci are predicted to arise due to differences in mutation rates and from the "hitchhiking" effects of natural selection. Consistent with hitchhiking models, Drosophila melanogaster chromosome regions with very low recombination have unusually low nuc...
