Introgression of a Block of Genome Under Infinitesimal Selection.
Genetics - 1 Aug 2018
Sachdeva Himani, Barton Nicholas H
Abstract excerpt
Adaptive introgression is common in nature and can be driven by selection acting on multiple, linked genes. We explore the effects of polygenic selection on introgression under the infinitesimal model with linkage. This model assumes that the introgressing block has an effectively infinite number of loci, each with an infinitesimal effect on the trait under selection. The block is assumed to introgress under...
