Background selection from unlinked sites causes non-independent evolution of deleterious mutations

2022-01-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Backgrounds: </h4>election describes the reduction in neutral diversity caused by selection against deleterious alleles at other loci. It is typically assumed that the purging of deleterious alleles affects linked neutral variants, and indeed simulations typically only treat a genomic window. However, background selection at unlinked loci also depresses neutral diversity. In agreement with p...
