Structural variant selection for high-altitude adaptation using single-molecule long-read sequencing
2021-03-27
Abstract excerpt
Structural variants (SVs) can be important drivers of human adaptation with strong effects, but previous studies have focused primarily on common variants with weak effects. Here, we used large-scale single-molecule long-read sequencing of 320 Tibetan and Han samples, to show that SVs are key drivers of selection under high-altitude adaptation. We expand the landscape of global SVs, apply robust models of selectio...
