Background selection in recombining genomes and its consequences for the maintenance of variation in complex traits

2025-05-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Backgrounds: </h4>election (BGS)—the reduction of linked neutral diversity via the purging of deleterious mutations—is a pervasive force in genomic evolution. However, its impact on complex phenotypes remains poorly understood because classical theory treats fitness effects as fixed rather than emerging from a phenotype-to-fitness map. Here, we investigate the impact of BGS across three phenotypic selection fr...
