Mechanistic revisions of phenomenological modeling strategies in molecular evolution.

Trends in genetics : TIG - 1 Jun 2010

Rodrigue Nicolas, Philippe Hervé

Abstract excerpt

The physical sciences have long recognized the distinction between formal descriptions of observations versus explanations for observations, with the canonical example embodied in the axiom statistical mechanics explains thermodynamics. Descriptive models are often said to be phenomenologically m...
