The effects of hitchhiking and repulsion of deleterious alleles on linkage disequilibrium during a selective sweep

Maya Weissman, Kirk E. Lohmueller, Nandita R. Garud

The paper uses simulations to study how hitchhiking and repulsion of deleterious alleles affect linkage disequilibrium during selective sweeps, finding criss-crossing patterns and exceptions in empirical data.

Balancing the risks of mating: biogeographic evidence of cleistogamy as a bet hedging strategy

Maya Weissman, Dafeng Zhang, Rebecca Y. Kartzinel, Daniel M. Weinreich

This study examines cleistogamy as a bet hedging strategy by analyzing biogeographic patterns across 400 species, finding it more common in cooler, variable environments.
