Bayesian estimation of scaled mutation rate under the coalescent: a sequential Monte Carlo approach
Abstract Background Samples of molecular sequence data of a locus obtained from random individuals in a population are often related by an unknown genealogy. More importantly, population genetics parameters, for instance, the scaled population mutation rate Θ=4N e μ for diploids or Θ=2N e μ for hapl...
