Abstract excerpt
We describe a model of neutral DNA evolution that allows substitution rates at a site to depend on the two flanking nucleotides ("context"), the branch of the phylogenetic tree, and position within the sequence and implement it by using a flexible and computationally efficient Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo approach. We then apply this approach to characterize phylogenetic variation in context-dependent...
