A nonparametric test reveals selection for rapid flowering in the Arabidopsis genome.
The detection of footprints of natural selection in genetic polymorphism data is fundamental to understanding the genetic basis of adaptation, and has important implications for human health. The standard approach has been to reject neutrality in favor of selection if the pattern of variation at a c...
