Calibrating a molecular clock from phylogeographic data: moments and likelihood estimators.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Oct 2003

Hickerson Michael J, Gilchrist Michael A, Takebayashi Naoki

Abstract excerpt

We present moments and likelihood methods that estimate a DNA substitution rate from a group of closely related sister species pairs separated at an assumed time, and we test these methods with simulations. The methods also estimate ancestral population size and can test whether there is a significant difference among the ancestral population sizes of the sister species pairs. Estimates presented in the...
