Genome Sequencing Highlights Genes Under Selection and the Dynamic Early History of Dogs
Adam H. Freedman, Rena M. Schweizer, Ilan Gronau +27
To identify genetic changes underlying dog domestication and reconstruct their early evolutionary history, we analyzed novel high-quality genome sequences of three gray wolves, one…
A Model-Based Analysis of GC-Biased Gene Conversion in the Human and Chimpanzee Genomes
John A. Capra, Melissa J. Hubisz, Dennis Kostka +2
GC-biased gene conversion (gBGC) is a recombination-associated process that favors the fixation of G/C alleles over A/T alleles. In mammals, gBGC is hypothesized to contribute to v…
Inference of Natural Selection from Interspersed Genomic Elements Based on Polymorphism and Divergence
Ilan Gronau, Leonardo Arbiza, Jaaved Mohammed +1
Complete genome sequences contain valuable information about natural selection, but extracting this information for short, widely scattered noncoding elements remains a challenging…
