Abstract

The concept of maximal perfect haplotype blocks is introduced as a simple pattern allowing to identify genomic regions that show signatures of natural selection. The model is formally defined and a simple algorithm is presented to find all perfect haplotype blocks in a set of phased chromosome sequences. Application to three whole chromosomes from the 1000 genomes project phase 3 data set shows the potential of the concept as an effective approach for quick detection of selection in large sets of thousands of genomes.
