Methods for selecting fixed-effect models for heterogeneous codon evolution, with comments on their application to gene and genome data
(2007)
Background: Models of codon evolution have proven useful for investigating the strength and
direction of natural selection. In some cases, a priori biological knowledge has been used
successfully to model heterogeneous ...
Phylogenomic analysis of natural selection pressure in Streptococcus genomes
(2007-08)
Background: In comparative analyses of bacterial pathogens, it has been common practice to
discriminate between two types of genes: (i) those shared by pathogens and their non-pathogenic
relatives (core genes), and (ii) ...
