Hello,
What is the current state of selection-induced mutation work? The
latest entry in to the literature that I am aware of is Hall (1993);
in which, it is stated:
"At this time, there is not a robust model to account for selection-
induced mutations."
Is this still the case? Have I missed more recent entries in the
literature? What is the current thinking/conversation of those
individuals concerned with this topic?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
