Population genetics of polymorphism and divergence under fluctuating selection.
Current methods for detecting fluctuating selection require time series data on genotype frequencies. Here, we propose an alternative approach that makes use of DNA polymorphism data from a sample of individuals collected at a single point in time. Our method uses classical diffusion approximations to model temporal fluctuations in the selection coefficients to find the expected distribution of...
متن کاملPopulation Genetics Inference for Longitudinally-Sampled Mutants Under Strong Selection
Longitudinal allele frequency data are becoming increasingly prevalent. Such samples permit statistical inference of the population genetics parameters that influence the fate of mutant variants. To infer these parameters by maximum likelihood, the mutant frequency is often assumed to evolve according to the Wright-Fisher model. For computational reasons, this discrete model is commonly approxi...
متن کاملArtificial intelligence & genetics
Artificial intelligence (AI) is the development of computer systems that are able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a wide-ranging tool that enables people to rethink how we integrate information, analyze data, and use the resulting insights to improve decision making—and already it is transforming every walk of life. AI has application...
متن کاملPopulation genetics: The signature of selection
There is hope that the structure of molecular variation within populations can give evidence for recent adaptive evolution. New work on Drosophila genes that seem to have been subject to adaptive changes illustrates the difficulties in calculating the statistical significance of data trends that seem to show this.
متن کاملThe population genetics of Duchenne: natural and artificial selection in Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
The dynamics of X linkage was derived by Haldane in 1935. It is clear that the majority of mutations to an X linked lethal are new and that methods of control based on relatives of known cases can have limited impact on future incidence. The ability to define and track neighbouring loci allows some carriers who are daughters of carriers to be detected, and possible carriers to be excluded, with...
