Weak selection and recent mutational changes influence polymorphic synonymous mutations in humans


Weak selection and recent mutational changes influence polymorphic synonymous mutations in humans is a scholarly work, published in 2006 in ''Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America''. The main subjects of the publication include evolutionary biology, neutral theory of molecular evolution, silent mutation, mutation rate, selection (genetic algorithm), mutation, CRISPR, neutral mutation, population genetics, purifying selection, gene, evolution of ageing, evolutionary dynamics, genetic variation, genetics, molecular evolution, genetic drift, Synonymous substitution, biology, and natural selection. The authors find evidence that neutral mechanisms are influencing the frequency of polymorphic mutations in humans.
