On the unfounded enthusiasm for soft selective sweeps II: examining recent evidence from humans, flies, and viruses

2018-10-14

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Since the initial description of the genomic patterns expected under models of positive selection acting on standing genetic variation and on multiple beneficial mutations—so-called soft selective sweeps—researchers have sought to identify these patterns in natural population data. Indeed, over the past two years, large-scale data analyses have argued that soft sweeps are pervasive across organi...
