Fine-mapping the Favored Mutation in a Positive Selective Sweep

2017-06-02

Abstract excerpt

Methods to identify signatures of selective sweeps in population genomics data have been actively developed, but mostly do not identify the specific mutation favored by the selective sweep. We present a method, iSAFE, that uses a statistic derived solely from population genetics signals to pinpoint the favored mutation even when the signature of selection extends to 5Mbp. iSAFE was tested extensively on simulated...
