Spatial patterns of variation due to natural selection in humans.

Nature reviews. Genetics - 1 Nov 2009

Novembre John, Di Rienzo Anna

Abstract excerpt

Empowered by technology and sampling efforts designed to facilitate genome-wide association mapping, human geneticists are now studying the geography of genetic variation in unprecedented detail. With high genomic coverage and geographic resolution, these studies are identifying loci with spatial signatures of selection, such as extreme levels of differentiation and correlations with environmental variables....
