Coupling adaptive molecular evolution to phylodynamics using fitness-dependent birth-death models
2019-01-26
Abstract excerpt
Beneficial and deleterious mutations cause fitness to vary among individuals in a population, which natural selection can then act upon to drive adaptive evolution. Non-neutral mutations can likewise cause fitness to vary among lineages in a phylogeny and thereby shape its branching structure. While standard phylogenetic models do not allow mutations to feedback and shape tree topology, birth-death models can acco...
