SweepLink: Joint Inference of Demography and Linked Selection from Time-series Data

Genome-wide time-series data, i.e. allele frequency trajectories tracked across multiple sampling times, are among the richest sources of information for inferring selection. Beyond a beneficial allele’s own rise in frequency, such data capture how it drags nearby loci upward via linkage, an effect known as genetic hit...
