New statistical tests of neutrality for DNA samples from a population.

Genetics - 1 May 1996

Fu Y X

Abstract excerpt

The purpose of this paper is to develop statistical tests of the neutral model of evolution against a class of alternative models with the common characteristic of having an excess of mutations that occurred a long time ago or a reduction of recent mutations compared to the neutral model. This class of population genetics models include models for structured populations, models with decreasing effective...
