Evidence for Widespread Positive and Purifying Selection Across the European Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) Genome

The nearly neutral theory of molecular evolution predicts that the efficacy of both positive and purifying selection is a function of the long-term effective population size (N(e)) of a species. Under this theory, the efficacy of natural selection should increase with N(e). Here, we tested this simp...
