Recurrent gene amplification and soft selective sweeps during evolution of multidrug resistance in malaria parasites.
When selection is strong and beneficial alleles have a single origin, local reductions in genetic diversity are expected. However, when beneficial alleles have multiple origins or were segregating in the population prior to a change in selection regime, the impact on genetic diversity may be less cl...
