Local adaptation can cause both peaks and troughs in nucleotide diversity within populations
2020-06-04
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Local adaptation is expected to cause high F ST at sites linked to a causal locus, however this pattern can also be driven by background or positive selection. Within-population nucleotide diversity could provide a means to differentiate these scenarios, as both background and positive selection deplete diversity, whereas some theoretical studies have shown that local adaptation increases it.
