The general dearth of nearly complete sweep signals in Africans is consistent with genome-wide patterns,12, 68, 80 suggesting that increased drift and geographic differences in selection pressures might have inflated the number of nearly complete sweep signals among non-Africans.80, 81...
(Zhanget al., 2012). Each domestic animal has evolved specific traits, such as meat, egg, or fur productivity. Those traits are expected to be acquired by strong selection pressures. Therefore, by comparing the genomes among strains, the loci dominantly selected in each strain can be ...
When the interaction persists over time, the ongoing cycles of adaptation and counteradaptation can produce one of the highest selective pressures known in nature [1–4]. There are numerous examples of the re- sulting rapid evolutionary responses during host–pathogen coevolution, ...
alleles in or nearLTαthat are present in Neandertal and Denisovan genomes, further supporting the inferred ancient age of nucleotide variation. While these findings are generally consistent with a model of long-term balancing selection, we also observed extensive haplotype homozygosity on chromosomes c...
On the other hand, the duplicated copies of insl5 appear to be subject to different selective pressures. The molecular clock analyses revealed that insl5b has had an accelerated rate of evolution compared to insl5a, and the average value of dn/ds was more than twice as high in the B- ...
(populations) respond to selection pressures across their range. However, further research would be needed to investigate the relationships between immune genetic diversity and pathogen resistance, particularly with respect to habitat variation in biotic and abiotic factors that likely support different ...
