Brief Population Bottlenecks Are Beyond The Genetic Streetlight

2021-08-16

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Inferring human demographic history from extant genomes is an important goal of population genetics. To date, the sensitivity of coalescence-based methods in detecting population bottlenecks has not been well characterized. In this study, we find that brief bottlenecks, of just a few generations, are undetectable by current methods. A new approach to population inference, Lineage Time I...
