Population dynamics of HIV-1 inferred from gene sequences.

Genetics - 1 Feb 1999

A method for the estimation of population dynamic history from sequence data is described and used to investigate the past population dynamics of HIV-1 subtypes A and B. Using both gag and env gene alignments the effective population size of each subtype is estimated and found to be surprisingly...
