Rate of de novo mutations in the three-spined stickleback
Chaowei Zhang, Kerry Reid, Mikkel Heide Schierup…·Juha Merilä
The paper estimates de novo mutation rates in three-spined sticklebacks using family trios and finds a mutation rate of 5.05 x 10^-9/bp/gen with a positive correlation between mutation rate and recombination rate.
