Abstract excerpt
A model for testing random molecular evolution is proposed. Randomness of recurrent mutation is defined based on isotropy and zero covariance among nucleotide sites. Assuming an equal rate of mutation for the bases A, T, G, and C, in both DNA strands, a mutational matrix of transformation A, T, G, and C with 6 parameters is developed. Under this model the equilibrium proportions (F) of the bases are FA = FT = (D...
