Constructing multi-locus models of demography for two drosophila sibling-species.

Objective

Demographic models will be constructed for two closely-related species of Drosophila based on multi-locus DNA sequence variability patterns, providing a point of departure from which to quantitatively assess the impact of natural selection at genes of interest.
