DNA evolution under weak selection.

Abstract excerpt

Some DNA data show patterns of variation not expected under the neutral theory. Here, the independent multicodon (IMC) model, a nearly neutral mutation model assuming no interaction among codons, was studied when population size changes using computer simulation. Patterns of variation expected under the model were investigated using statistics for the neutrality tests. The average dispersion index is more than...
