Signals of positive selection in Peruvians from three ecological regions

In this study, genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data (Illumina Infinium® MEGA array) was gathered for 200 individuals distributed across Perú, and then analyzed to investigate signals of recent positive selection specific to populations living in the high-altitude environments of the Andes, the arid Pacific coast and the Amazon rainforest.
