Soft sweeps and beyond: Understanding the patterns and probabilities of selection footprints under rapid adaptation

2017-03-07

Abstract excerpt

The tempo and mode of adaptive evolution determine how natural selection shapes patterns of genetic diversity in DNA polymorphism data. While slow mutation-limited adaptation leads to classical footprints of “hard” selective sweeps, these patterns are different when adaptation responds quickly to a novel selection pressure, acting either on standing genetic variation or on recurrent new mutation. In the past decad...
