  - "Polymorphic short insertions and deletions (INDELs \r\n 50 bp) are abundant,
    although less common than single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Evidence from
    model organisms shows INDELs to be more strongly influenced by purifying selection
    than SNPs. Partly for this reason, INDELs are rarely used as markers for demographic
    processes or to detect divergent selection. Here, we compared INDELs and SNPs
    in the intertidal snail Littorina saxatilis, focussing on hybrid zones between
    ecotypes, in order to test the utility of INDELs in the detection of divergent
    selection. We computed INDEL and SNP site frequency spectra using capture sequencing
    data. We assessed the impact of divergent selection by analyzing allele frequency
    clines across habitat boundaries. We also examined the influence of GC-biased
    gene conversion because it may be confounded with signatures of selection. We
    show evidence that short INDELs are affected more by purifying selection than
    SNPs, but part of the observed site frequency spectra difference can be attributed
    to GC-biased gene conversion. We did not find a difference in the impact of divergent
    selection between short INDELs and SNPs. Short INDELs and SNPs were similarly
    distributed across the genome and so are likely to respond to indirect selection
    in the same way. A few regions likely affected by divergent selection were revealed
    by INDELs and not by SNPs. Short INDELs can be useful (additional) genetic markers
    helping to identify genomic regions important for adaptation and population divergence.@eng"
