Adaptation–not by sweeps alone
Open accessAbstract
There has been recent progress in identifying selective sweeps underlying a range of adaptations. Jonathan Pritchard and Anna Di Rienzo argue that many adaptive events in natural populations may occur by polygenic adaptation, which would largely go undetected by conventional methods for detecting selection.

Selective sweep scans are limited in their ability to detect polygenic adaptation of complex traits that may be due to small shifts in allele frequency at many loci.
“Selective sweep scans are limited in their ability to detect polygenic adaptation of complex traits that may be due to small shifts in allele frequency at many loci (Pritchard and Di Rienzo 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
