General formulation of Luria-Delbrück distribution of the number of mutants.

Physical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics - 1 Jul 2015

Houchmandzadeh Bahram

Abstract excerpt

The Luria-Delbrück experiment is a cornerstone of evolutionary theory, demonstrating the randomness of mutations before selection. The distribution of the number of mutants in this experiment has been the subject of intense investigation during the past 70 years. Despite this considerable effort, most of the results have been obtained under the assumption of constant growth rate, which is far from the...
