A survey of methods and tools to detect recent and strong positive selection
P Pavlidis, N Alachiotis - Journal of Biological Research-Thessaloniki, 2017 - Springer
Positive selection occurs when an allele is favored by natural selection. The frequency of the
favored allele increases in the population and due to genetic hitchhiking the neighboring …
