Times on trees, and the age of an allele.

Theoretical population biology - 1 Mar 2000

Stephens M

Abstract excerpt

In this paper we consider the genealogy of a random sample of n chromosomes from a panmictic population which has evolved with constant size N over many generations. We address two related problems. First we describe how genealogical information may be usefully partitioned into information on the events (mutations and coalescences) which occur in the genealogy, and the times between these events. We show that the...
