Journal ArticleDOI
The Impact of Sampling Schemes on the Site Frequency Spectrum in Nonequilibrium Subdivided Populations
TL;DR: Strong effects of the sampling scheme on Tajima's D and Fu and Li's D statistics are demonstrated, particularly under specieswide (range) expansions, which suggests that validating the assumption of panmixia is crucial if robust demographic inferences are to be made from local or pooled samples.
Journal ArticleDOI
Convergence in distribution of random metric measure spaces (Λ-coalescent measure trees)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the space of complete and separable metric spaces which are equipped with a probability measure and give a notion of convergence based on the philosophy that a sequence of metric measure spaces converges if and only if all finite subspaces sampled from these spaces converge.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Infinitely Many Genes Model for the Distributed Genome of Bacteria
TL;DR: The infinitely many genes (IMG) model is presented, which is a quantitative, evolutionary model for the distributed genome based on a genealogy of individual genomes and the possibility of gene gain and gene loss, for example, by pseudogenization and deletion of genes, during reproduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimating mutation distances from unaligned genomes
TL;DR: An estimator of the number of substitutions per site between two unaligned DNA sequences, K(r), which is derived from an explicit model of evolution and equivalent to or significantly better than the alternative measures.
Journal ArticleDOI
andi: Fast and accurate estimation of evolutionary distances between closely related genomes
TL;DR: An algorithm for rapidly computing the evolutionary distances between closely related genomes is developed and implemented in the multithreaded UNIX command-line program andi for ANchor DIstances.
