English term or phrase: selective sweep
Ik ben op zoek naar de exacte Nederlandse vertaling voor een populair-wetenschappelijk artikel. Ik raak niet verder dan 'selectieve transformatie' of 'snel selectieproces', en vind geen hulp op het internet.

De term wordt als volgt omschreven in het artikel:

Scientists know that natural selection has acted on the coding in a region of DNA if they see a lack of variability in that region. The genomes of any two people differ at only about one out of every 1,000 pairs of DNA nucleotides, or “letters.” These points of difference are known as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and the alternative versions of nucleotides at each SNP are called alleles. When a particular SNP allele ends up improving reproductive success, it ultimately spreads through a population, or is “selected.” At the same time, nearby alleles travel with the favored one and thus become more common in the population as well. The resulting reduction of SNP variation in this part of the genome in a population is called a selective sweep.

A Selective Sweep in Chimpanzees: Is SIV the Culprit?

Een repertoire reductie in chimpansees: Is SIV de oorzaak?

To address these questions, we assayed MHC class I diversity in a West African chimpanzee population and in some animals from other subspecies of chimpanzee. Application of different techniques allowed the detection of 17 full-length Patr-A, 19 Patr-B, and 10 Patr-C alleles. All Patr-A alleles cluster only into the HLA-A1/A3/A11 family, which supports the idea that chimpanzees have experienced a reduction in their repertoire of A locus alleles
