Measuring the sensitivity of single-locus "neutrality tests" using a direct perturbation approach.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Jan 2010

Garrigan Daniel, Lewontin Richard, Wakeley John

Abstract excerpt

A large number of statistical tests have been proposed to detect natural selection based on a sample of variation at a single genetic locus. These tests measure the deviation of the allelic frequency distribution observed within populations from the distribution expected under a set of assumption...
