Competitive fitness assays are widely used in evolutionary biology and typically rely on a reference strain to compare different focal genotypes. This approach implicitly relies the absence of interaction between competing In other words, performance must not depend competitor. report scrutinized this assumption by diverged Drosophila simulans populations against common strain. We detected strong evidence for genotypes: (1) Frequency-dependent selection was with opposite effects genetically...
The general picture of human genetic variation has been vastly depicted in the last years, yet many populations remain broadly understudied. In this work, we analyze for first time Merchero population, a Spanish minority ethnic group that scarcely studied and historically persecuted. Mercheros have roughly characterised by an itinerant history, common traditional occupations, usage their own language.Here, examine demographic history scenario Mercheros, using genome-wide array data, whole...
