Standing genetic variation as a major contributor to adaptation in the Virginia chicken lines selection experiment

BACKGROUND: Artificial selection provides a powerful approach to study the genetics of adaptation. Using selective-sweep mapping, it is possible to identify genomic regions where allele-frequencies have diverged during selection. To avoid false positive signatures of selection, it is necessary to sh...
