Genome patterns of selection and introgression of haplotypes in natural populations of the house mouse (Mus musculus).
General parameters of selection, such as the frequency and strength of positive selection in natural populations or the role of introgression, are still insufficiently understood. The house mouse (Mus musculus) is a particularly well-suited model system to approach such questions, since it has a def...
