Inferring the number and position of changes in selective regime in a non-equilibrium mutation-selection framework

Inferring the number and position of changes in selective regime in a non-equilibrium mutation-selection framework

Abstract Background Recovering the historical patterns of selection acting on a protein coding sequence is a major goal of evolutionary biology. Mutation-selection models address this problem by explicitly modelling fixation rates as a function of site-specific amino acid fitness values.However, the...
