A haplotype method detects diverse scenarios of local adaptation from genomic sequence variation.

Abstract excerpt

Identifying genomic targets of population-specific positive selection is a major goal in several areas of basic and applied biology. However, it is unclear how often such selection should act on new mutations versus standing genetic variation or recurrent mutation, and furthermore, favoured alleles may either become fixed or remain variable in the population. Very few population genetic statistics are sensitive...
