Single-locus tests of microsatellite evolution: multi-step mutations and constraints on allele size.

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution - 1 Apr 1999

Nielsen R, Palsbøll P J

Abstract excerpt

We evaluate some common simulation procedures as well as a recently developed likelihood method used for testing hypotheses regarding microsatellite evolution. Results from simulated data revealed that the tests for the detection of multi-step mutations in general have some power, whereas tests f...
