Abstract excerpt
Under the hypothesis of no-strand-bias conditions, the Watson and Crick base-pairing rule decreases the complexity of models of DNA evolution by reducing to six the maximum number of substitution rates. It was shown that intrastrand equimolarity between A and T (A*=T*) and between G and C (G*=C*) [corrected] is a general asymptotic property of this class of models. This statistical prediction was observed on 60...
