Abstract excerpt
Genomewide screens of genetic variation within and between populations can reveal signatures of selection implicated in adaptation and speciation. Genomic regions with low genetic diversity and elevated differentiation reflective of locally reduced effective population sizes (Ne ) are candidates for barrier loci contributing to population divergence. Yet, such candidate genomic regions need not arise as a result...
