Uncovering the genetic basis of adaptive change: on the intersection of landscape genomics and theoretical population genetics

Stéphane Joost, Jeffrey David Jensen, Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco, Kevin Leempoel, Sylvie Stucki, Ivo Widmer

A workshop recently held at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL, Switzerland) was dedicated to understanding the genetic basis of adaptive change, taking stock of the different approaches developed in theoretical population genetics and land ...

Inferences of Demography and Selection in an African Population of Drosophila melanogaster

Jeffrey David Jensen

It remains a central problem in population genetics to infer the past action of natural selection, and these inferences pose a challenge because demographic events will also substantially affect patterns of polymorphism and divergence. Thus it is imperativ ...

Recent Progress in Polymorphism-Based Population Genetic Inference

Jeffrey David Jensen

The recent availability of whole-genome sequencing data affords tremendous power for statistical inference. With this, there has been great interest in the development of polymorphism-based approaches for the estimation of population genetic parameters. Th ...

Characterizing the Influence of Effective Population Size on the Rate of Adaptation: Gillespie's Darwin Domain

Jeffrey David Jensen

Characterizing the role of effective population size in dictating the rate of adaptive evolution remains a major challenge in evolutionary biology. Depending on the underlying distribution of fitness effects of new mutations, populations of different sizes ...
