Genetic hitchhiking in spatially extended populations

When a mutation with selective advantage s spreads through a panmictic population, it may cause two lineages at a linked locus to coalesce; the probability of coalescence is exp ( - 2. r T) , where T ~ log (2. N s) / s is the time to fixation, N is the number of haploid individuals, and r is the rec...
