Predicting Carriers of Ongoing Selective Sweeps without Knowledge of the Favored Allele.

PLoS genetics - 1 Sept 2015

Abstract excerpt

Methods for detecting the genomic signatures of natural selection have been heavily studied, and they have been successful in identifying many selective sweeps. For most of these sweeps, the favored allele remains unknown, making it difficult to distinguish carriers of the sweep from non-carriers. In an ongoing selective sweep, carriers of the favored allele are likely to contain a future most recent common...
