Population Bottleneck Detection

Population Bottleneck Detection is a computational and statistical method in population genomics that identifies significant reductions in effective population size by analyzing genomic signatures such as allele frequency distortions, heterozygosity excess, or site frequency spectrum asymmetries, thereby distinguishing recent demographic contractions from equilibrium population processes.
