Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The site frequency spectrum summarizes the distribution of allele frequencies throughout the genome, and it is widely used as a summary statistic to infer demographic parameters and to detect signals of natural selection. The use of high-throughput low-coverage DNA sequencing data can lead to biased estimates of the site frequency spectrum due to high levels of uncertainty in genotyping. RESULTS: Here...
