A phylogenetic estimator of effective population size or mutation rate.

Genetics - 1 Feb 1994

Fu Y X

Abstract excerpt

A new estimator of the essential parameter theta = 4Ne mu from DNA polymorphism data is developed under the neutral Wright-Fisher model without recombination and population subdivision, where Ne is the effective population size and mu is the mutation rate per locus per generation. The new estimator has a variance only slightly larger than the minimum variance of all possible unbiased estimators of the parameter...
