Patterns of genetic variability in genomic regions with low rates of recombination

2019-08-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Surveys of DNA sequence variation have shown that the level of genetic variability in a genomic region is often strongly positively correlated with its rate of crossing over (CO) [1–3]. This pattern is caused by selection acting on linked sites, which reduces genetic variability and can also cause the frequency distribution of segregating variants to contain more rare variants than expected witho...
