A viral sampling design for testing the molecular clock and for estimating evolutionary rates and divergence times
1 Jan 2002
Abstract excerpt
MOTIVATION: The high pace of viral sequence change means that variation in the times at which sequences are sampled can have a profound effect both on the ability to detect trends over time in evolutionary rates and on the power to reject the Molecular Clock Hypothesis (MCH). Trends in viral evolutionary rates are of particular interest because their detection may allow connections to be established between a...
