Evolution of the mutation rate.

Trends in genetics : TIG - 1 Aug 2010

Lynch Michael

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the mechanisms of evolution requires information on the rate of appearance of new mutations and their effects at the molecular and phenotypic levels. Although procuring such data has been technically challenging, high-throughput genome sequencing is rapidly expanding knowledge in this area. With information on spontaneous mutations now available in a variety of organisms, general patterns have...
