The paper investigates the relationship between mutation rates and selective constraint in the human genome, finding higher mutation rates in protein-coding genes compared to non-coding regions.

This paper uses causal inference to show that background selection and mutation rate variation jointly shape human genetic diversity, with mutation rate variation having comparable impact in some chromosomes.

This paper develops a model for background selection in non-equilibrium populations, improving accuracy across parameter space and accommodating changing population sizes.

This paper analyzes the population genomics of Ustilago maydis, finding two subpopulations with a recent bottleneck and higher adaptive mutation rates in virulence cluster genes.
