Refinement of primate copy number variationhotspots identifies candidate genomic regions evolving under positive selection

Background Copy number variants (CNVs), defined as losses and gains of segments of genomic DNA, are a major source of genomic variation. Results In this study, we identified over 2,000 human CNVs that overlap with orthologous chimpanzee or orthologous macaque CNVs. Of these, 170 CNVs overlap with bo...
