Spontaneous mutational and standing genetic (co)variation at dinucleotide microsatellites in Caenorhabditis briggsae and Caenorhabditis elegans.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Mar 2009

Phillips Naomi, Salomon Matthew, Custer Andrew, Ostrow Dejerianne, Baer Charles F

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the evolutionary processes responsible for shaping genetic variation within and between species requires separating the effects of mutation and selection. Differences between the patterns of genetic variation observed in nature and when mutations are allowed to accumulate in the relative absence of selection can reveal biases imposed by selection. We characterize the genetic variation at...
