Molecular Clock of Neutral Mutations in a Fitness-Increasing Evolutionary Process.
The molecular clock of neutral mutations, which represents linear mutation fixation over generations, is theoretically explained by genetic drift in fitness-steady evolution or hitchhiking in adaptive evolution. The present study is the first experimental demonstration for the molecular clock of neu...
