Recessive deleterious variation has a limited impact on signals of adaptive introgression in human populations
2020-01-14
Abstract excerpt
Admixture with archaic hominins has altered the landscape of genomic variation in modern human populations. Several gene regions have been previously identified as candidates of adaptive introgression (AI) that facilitated human adaptation to specific environments. However, simulation-based studies have suggested that population genetics processes other than adaptive mutations, such as heterosis from recessive del...
