Revealing the selection history of adaptive loci using genome-wide scans for selection: an example from domestic sheep

Abstract Background One of the approaches to detect genetics variants affecting fitness traits is to identify their surrounding genomic signatures of past selection. With established methods for detecting selection signatures and the current and future availability of large datasets, such studies sh...
