Given a species tree and a gene tree, a valid coalescent history is a list of the branches of the species tree on which coalescences in the gene tree take place. I develop a recur...
: Since we are limited in our knowledge of human demographic history and variations of recombination and mutation rates, large-scale computer simulation is a necessary tool in gene...
Understanding the variation of recombination rates across a given genome is crucial for disease gene mapping and for detecting signatures of selection, to name just a couple of app...
Background: Coalescent simulations are playing a large role in interpreting large scale intraspecific sequence or polymorphism surveys and for planning and evaluating association ...

Background: Although testing for simultaneous divergence (vicariance) across different population-pairs that span the same barrier to gene flow is of central importance to evoluti...
