a power point side titled: "Data example of hard and soft sweeps in the evolution of drug resistance in HIV" In the top right is a set of viral sequences before and after adaptation via a hard sweep (a single drug resistance mutation has swept away diversity) In the bottom right a population of HIV sequences has adapted via two drug resistance mutations (at the same base) that each sit on their own haplotype

This paper by Kadie-Ann Williams and @pleunipennings.bsky.social is a really useful resource for teaching sweeps and linked selection

Author summary Archaeogenetic research on humans remains heavily biased towards Europe, Central and East Asia due to poor preservation of ancient DNA in hot climate. However, the number of studies foc...

Most ancient and modern genomes are known from a large but limited number of single nucleotide polymorphisms, each identified in a small set of genomes. New study shows how this ascertainment bias affects inferences of ancient mixture.
