Please help with all of these! thank you so much! Neutral regions of a species’ genome that are distant from any selected sites have apairwise diversity (?) of 0.01. Other regions of the genome have reduced genetic variation,and selective sweeps could be responsible for the reduction. Assume that selective sweepshappen at a rate of 10^-10 per bp, and they take 500 generations to reach fixation. Therecombination rate in regions where selective sweeps might occur is 10^-8 per bp. Theeffective population size of the species is 10^5. A. Find the expected genetic diversity (? per bp) in regions where selective sweepsmight be occurring.B. Find the deleterious mutation rate (per bp) that would be required to produce anequivalent reduction in genetic diversity as a result of background selection (BGS)?Assume the same recombination rate as above.
a To make a genomic library useful for sequencingan entire genome, why would you ordinarily fragment the genomic DNA by mechanical shearingforces like sonication rather than by cutting theDNA with a restriction enzyme?b. Suppose that you wanted to make a genomic library to determine the complete sequence of anewly discovered organism’s genome, but you didnot have a sonicator readily available. Explain howyou could nonetheless use two or more restrictionenzymes to make libraries whose clones could besequenced so that a computer could assemble thegenomic sequence.c. Suppose you only had a single restriction enzymeavailable, and you want to make a single genomiclibrary from which you could assemble the genomic sequence. How might you be able to achievethis goal? (Hint: See Problem 9.) To make this library, would it be preferable to use a restriction enzyme that recognizes a 4-base, 6-base, or 8-basesequence of DNA?
