1 year ago Hmm, this is an interesting question. I haven't tested these stats in any of these types of populations empirically nor through simulations. I did try my other method, saltiLASSI, on arabidopsis data, and it seemed to give sensible results (caveat, I know essentially nothing about arabidopsis biology). Since that method is also based on haplotypes, I might guess guess that these could work too. However, I would first want to ensure that the entire population is engaging in the same rates of selfing, on average, and honestly I'd probably want to do some simulations to confirm it works well before going too far down the analysis hole.

Hi community,
I want to know if selscan can detect natural selection signals in inbreeding populations using whole genome SNP data, despite the long haplotype distances caused by inbreeding and a significant hitchhiking effect, which may weaken the power of detection.
Is this feasible if I use the cross approaches (like xp-nsl or xp-ehh) to detect selection signals between the two populations?
thank you!
