Bias of selection on human copy-number variants. by Duc-Quang Nguyen, Caleb Webber, Chris P Ponting

“…Although large-scale copy-number variation is an important contributor to conspecific genomic diversity, whether these variants frequently contribute to human phenotype differences remains unknown. If they have few functional consequences, then copy-number variants (CNVs) might be expected both to be distributed uniformly throughout the human genome and to encode genes that are characteristic of the genome as a whole. …”
