Neutral mutation disequilibrium is common in prokaryotes and animals

2025-08-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Widely used models of sequence evolution assume DNA sequences are at equilibrium with respect to the processes that drive divergence, mutation and natural selection. Violations of this assumption have been shown to affect the conclusions from analyses of genetic variation. However, there is currently a lack of statistical methods to assess whether this phenomenon occurs with sufficient frequency...
