Effective size and polymorphism of linked neutral loci in populations under directional selection.

Genetics - 1 Aug 1998

Santiago E, Caballero A

Abstract excerpt

The general theory of the effective size (Ne) for populations under directional selection is extended to cover linkage. Ne is a function of the association between neutral and selected genes generated by finite sampling. This association is reduced by three factors: the recombination rate, the reduction of genetic variance due to drift, and the reduction of genetic variance of the selected genes due to selection....
