Difference between CpG site and Genetic hitchhiking

CpG site vs. Genetic hitchhiking

The CpG sites or CG sites are regions of DNA where a cytosine nucleotide is followed by a guanine nucleotide in the linear sequence of bases along its 5' → 3' direction. Genetic hitchhiking, also called genetic draft or the hitchhiking effect, is when an allele changes frequency not because it itself is under natural selection, but because it is near another gene that is undergoing a selective sweep and that is on the same DNA chain.

Similarities between CpG site and Genetic hitchhiking

CpG site and Genetic hitchhiking have 2 things in common (in Unionpedia): DNA, Mutation.

DNA

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a thread-like chain of nucleotides carrying the genetic instructions used in the growth, development, functioning and reproduction of all known living organisms and many viruses.
