The coalescence time of sampled genes in the structured coalescent model.

Theoretical population biology - 1 Nov 2006

Notohara Morihiro, Umeda Takayoshi

Abstract excerpt

The aim of this article is to investigate the distribution of the coalescence time (T) for sampled genes in the structured coalescent. We obtain some exact solutions for small samples and approximate distributions for n sampled genes in strong and weak migration. We also conduct computer simulation to evaluate efficiencies of these approximations and show the dependency of the distribution of the coalescence time...
