Coalescent Tree Imbalance and a Simple Test for Selective Sweeps Based on Microsatellite Variation

Selective sweeps are at the core of adaptive evolution. We study how the shape of coalescent trees is affected by recent selective sweeps. To do so we define a coarse-grained measure of tree topology. This measure has appealing analytical properties, its distribution is derived from a uniform, and i...
