Characterizing recurrent positive selection at fast-evolving genes in Drosophila miranda and Drosophila pseudoobscura.

Genome biology and evolution - 12 Jul 2010

Jensen Jeffrey D, Bachtrog Doris

Abstract excerpt

Characterizing the distribution of selection coefficients in natural populations remains a central challenge in evolutionary biology. We resequenced a subset of 19 fast-evolving protein-coding genes in the sister species Drosophila miranda and D. pseudoobscura and their flanking regions to charac...
