From Molecular Genetics to Phylodynamics: Evolutionary Relevance of Mutation Rates Across Viruses
Although evolution is a multifactorial process, theory posits that the speed of molecular evolution should be directly determined by the rate at which spontaneous mutations appear. To what extent these two biochemical and population-scale processes are related in nature, however, is largely unknown....
