Abstract excerpt
A biologically realistic method was used to simulate evolutionary trees. The method uses a real DNA coding sequence as the starting point, simulates mutation according to the mutational spectrum of Escherichia coli-including base substitutions, insertions, and deletions-and separates the processes of mutation and selection.
