Modifiers of mutation rate in selectively fluctuating environments

Franz Baumdicker, Elisabeth Huss, Peter Pfaffelhuber

We study a mutation-selection model with a fluctuating environment. More precisely, individuals in a large population are assumed to have a modifier locus determining the mutation…

Method comparison with repeated measurements -- Passing-Bablok regression for grouped data with errors in both variables

Franz Baumdicker, Ulrich Hölker

The Passing-Bablok and Theil-Sen regression are closely related non-parametric methods to estimate the regression coefficients and build tests on the relationship between the depen…

Game time: statistical contests in the classroom

Sam Doerken, Martin Schumacher, Franz Baumdicker

We describe a contest in variable selection which was part of a statistics course for graduate students. In particular, the possibility to create a contest themselves offered an ad…

The site frequency spectrum of dispensable genes

Franz Baumdicker

The differences between DNA-sequences within a population are the basis to infer the ancestral relationship of the individuals. Within the classical infinitely many sites model, it…

The infinitely many genes model with horizontal gene transfer

Franz Baumdicker, Peter Pfaffelhuber

The genome of bacterial species is much more flexible than that of eukaryotes. Moreover, the distributed genome hypothesis for bacteria states that the total number of genes presen…

Evolution of bacterial genomes under horizontal gene transfer

Franz Baumdicker, Peter Pfaffelhuber

Unraveling the evolutionary forces shaping bacterial diversity can today be tackled using a growing amount of genomic data. While the genome of eukaryotes is highly stable, bacteri…
