The anomalous effects of biased mutation.

Genetics - 1 Aug 2003

Waxman D, Peck J R

Abstract excerpt

A model is presented in which alleles at a number of loci combine to influence the value of a quantitative trait that is subject to stabilizing selection. Mutations can occur to alleles at the loci under consideration. Some of these mutations will tend to increase the value of the trait, while others will tend to decrease it. In contrast to most previous models, we allow the mean effect of mutations to be...
