Evolutionary Genetic Forces
• Natural Selection (fitness)• Drift (homozygosity by chance)
– much greater in small populations• Mutation/Recombination (variation)• Migration
– homogenizes gene pools
Hardy-Weinberg Paradigmp+q=1
p2 + 2pq + q2 =1

Constraints on “Silent” Changes
• Codon Biases-translation rates• Transcription elongation rates
– polymerase ‘pause’ sites• “Silent” regulatory elements
– select for or against presence/absence
• Overall genome structure

DNA, Protein Similarity
• Similarity by common descent– phylogenetic
• Similarity by convergence– functional importance
• Similarity by chance– random variation not limitless– particular problem in wide divergence

Our Goals
• Infer Phylogeny– Optimality criteria– Algorithm
• Phylogenetic inference– (interesting ones)

Watch Out“The danger of generating incorrect results
is inherently greater in computational phylogenetics than in many other fields of science.”
“…the limiting factor in phylogenetic analysis is not so much in the facility of software applicaition as in the conceptual understanding of what the software is doing with the data.”
