Flexible mixture model approaches that accommodate footprint size variability for robust detection of balancing selection

2019-05-23

Abstract excerpt

Long-term balancing selection typically leaves narrow footprints of increased genetic diversity, and therefore most detection approaches only achieve optimal performances when sufficiently small genomic regions ( i.e ., windows) are examined. Such methods are sensitive to window sizes and suffer substantial losses in power when windows are large. This issue creates a tradeoff between noise and power in empirical...
