Abstract excerpt
A new approach to modeling the effects of Hill-Robertson interference on levels of adaptation and patterns of variability in a nonrecombining genome or genomic region is described. The model assumes a set of L diallelic sites subject to reversible mutations between beneficial and deleterious alleles, with the same selection coefficient at each site. The assumption of reversibility allows the system to reach a...
