Soft selective sweeps: Addressing new definitions, evaluating competing models, and interpreting empirical outliers.

The ability to accurately identify and quantify genetic signatures associated with soft selective sweeps based on patterns of nucleotide variation has remained controversial. We here provide counter viewpoints to recent publications in PLOS Genetics that have argued not only for the statistical iden...
