hapovia
Hapovia is a term used in theoretical population genetics to describe a proposed mode of rapid haplotype-frequency change within populations. It refers to situations in which the frequencies of haplotype blocks shift abruptly rather than gradually, under conditions that differ from standard mutation-drift-recombination models.
The core idea of hapovia is that certain combinations of genetic variants can rise or fall in
The name hapovia appears to be a coined term, formed by combining the haplotype prefix haplo- with
