On Bartlett's formulation of the Luria-Delbrück mutation model.

Abstract excerpt

Current knowledge of microbial mutation rates was accumulated largely by means of fluctuation experiments. A mathematical model describing the cell dynamics in a fluctuation experiment is indispensable to the estimation of mutation rates through fluctuation experiments. In almost six decades the model formulated by Lea and Coulson dominated in research and application, although the model formulated by Bartlett is...
