Accumulating waves of random mutations before fixation.

Abstract excerpt

Mutations provide variation for evolution to emerge. A quantitative analysis of how mutations arising in single individuals expand and possibly fixate in a population is essential for studying evolutionary processes. While it is intuitive to expect that a continuous influx of mutations will lead to a continuous flow of mutations fixating in a stable constant population, joint fixation of multiple mutations occur...
