Population genomic analysis of 962 whole genome sequences of humans reveals natural selection in non-coding regions.

Whole genome analysis in large samples from a single population is needed to provide adequate power to assess relative strengths of natural selection across different functional components of the genome. In this study, we analyzed next-generation sequencing data from 962 European Americans, and foun...
