Abstract excerpt
Under several assumptions such as infinite population size with unlinked loci at linkage equilibrium (LD) under mutation-selection (M-S) balance, the rate (U), and the average effects (dominance and selection coefficients h and s) of deleterious genomic mutations (DGM) can be estimated by the Deng-Lynch method in some natural populations. However, all natural populations are finite in size and many of them are...
