Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution

Negative (purifying) selection – selective removal of rare alleles that are deleterious
Positive selection – selection due to added fitness to a particular allele
Balancing selection – Selection due to heterozygote or frequency dependent advantage
