Increase in a rare genotype.
Immunology relies on both negative selection and positive selection. Negative selection, or non resultant, provides for discounting a method of treatment. Positive selection, or improvement can at times be found by elimination through negative selection.
Selection is called a negative process in Business as more candidates who apply for employment are rejected than employed. That is why Selection is called a negative process.

Predation can affect biodiversity in two ways. In a positive way, predation allows for the biodiversity in an area to flourish, meaning that certain animals/plants being kept 'in check' will allow for other plants and animals to flourish. In a negative way, however, predation can decimate certain aspects of an area - such as a certain plant or animal, and this can affect the entirety of the food web for the area.
Negative natural selection.
One possibility is that the medium the light is supposed to refract from is a metamaterial, an artificially created material with a negative refractive index.
Either positive or negative traits could be selected for in nature, although selection for negative traits is extremely rare. A good example of positive selection at a rapid pace can be seen in antibiotic resistance in bacteria. Negative selection usually occurs in domesticated plants and animals. Let's say you have a very tasty strain of tomatoes. Instead of keeping some so you have seeds for next year you eat, sell or can all of them. This leaves you with no seeds, therefore you've selected out the positive traits of that particular plant. I think this is what you are referring to.
Genes are the medium by which inherited traits are passed on to offspring. It is inherited traits, and thus genes, that receive positive or negative selection.
