A population genetic test of selection at the molecular level.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 1 Dec 1995

Taylor M F, Shen Y, Kreitman M E

Abstract excerpt

The role of natural selection in molecular evolution has been inferred primarily by rejection of null hypotheses based on neutral theory, rather than by acceptance of specific predictions based on selection. In this report, a population genetic test of a specific prediction for selection on DNA p...
