A high resolution genome-wide scan for significant selective sweeps: an application to pooled sequence data in laying chickens.
In most studies aimed at localizing footprints of past selection, outliers at tails of the empirical distribution of a given test statistic are assumed to reflect locus-specific selective forces. Significance cutoffs are subjectively determined, rather than being related to a clear set of hypotheses...
