  1. ...recombination rate is expected to lead to reduced genetic variation via background selection (loss of neutral variants linked to deleterious mutations during purifying selection) (Charlesworth 1994; Comeron 2017) and selective sweeps/hitch-hiking (haplotypes around advantageous mutations increase in frequency...
  2. ..., we used a Bayesian binomial linear mixed model to analyze variation in the mutation rate, fitting sex and population as fixed effects and parental identity as a random effect. Some mutations could not be attributed to one parent or the other, and we chose to assign half of these to males and half...
  3. ...of differential gene flow, or (4) recurrent hitchhiking/background selection acting across the with effects on genetic variation modulated by recombination rate. Whereas all of these models generate genomic islands of relative divergence (FST), the main difference is that dXY is above average in islands caused...
  4. ...nucleotide polymorphisms are positively correlated with each other and with local recombination, suggesting that their nonrandom distributions are due to hitchhiking and background selection. Our cytogenetic analysis identified 16 polymorphic inversions in the DGRP. Common inverted and standard karyotypes...
  5. ...from gene flow, patterns of sequence divergence (dxy and relative node depth) do not support a major role of gene flow in the evolution of the differentiation landscape in these species. Instead, as predicted by models of linked selection, -wide variation in diversity and differentiation can...
  6. ..., Charlesworth B, Morgan MT. 1995. The pattern of neutral molecular variation under the background selection model. Genetics 141: 1619–1632. Charlesworth B, Bartolome C, Noel V. 2005. The detection of shared and ancestral polymorphisms. Genet Res 86: 149–157. Cutter AD. 2008. Divergence times in Caenorhabditis...
  7. ...is the correlation between recombination and diversity, which was originally observed in D. melanogaster (Begun and Aquadro 1992), and suggested the influence of linked selection. While such a correlation could result from ‘‘background selection’’ against linked deleterious variation (Charlesworth et al. 1993...
  8. ...divergence (number of sex comb teeth) between the two sister species Figure 2. Nucleotide diversity (p) along the major chromosomal arms in D. mauritiana (red line) and D. melanogaster (gray line). The sliding window analysis was performed using 500-kb windows with a step size of 100 kb; chromosomal...
  9. ...of nucleotide polymorphism and divergence and the spatial patterning of this variation across the (e.g., Hudson et al. 1987 ; Tajima 1989 ; McDonald and Kreitman 1991 ; Fay and Wu 2000 ; Kim and Stephan 2002 ; Przeworski 2003 ). These approaches hold promise for detecting specific targets of natural selection...
  10. ...the effect of background selection in the common ancestor of humans and chimpanzees. In agreement with predictions from population genetics, ILS was found to be reduced in exons and gene-dense regions when we control for confounding factors such as GC content and recombination rate. Finally, we find...
