| Abstract | This paper presents a novel population genetic model and a computationally and statistically tractable framework for analyzing within-host HIV diversity based on serial samples of HIV DNA sequences. This model considers within-host HIV evolution during the chronic phase of infection and assumes that the HIV population is homogeneous at the beginning, corresponding to the time of seroconversion, and evolves according to the Wright-Fisher reproduction model with recombination and variable mutation rate across nucleotide sites. In addition, the population size and generation time vary over time as piecewise constant functions of time. Under this model I approximate the genealogical and mutational processes for serial samples of DNA sequences by a continuous coalescent-recombination process and an inhomogeneous Poisson process, respectively. Based on these derivations, an efficient algorithm is described for generating polymorphisms in serial samples of DNA sequences under the model including various substitution models. Extensions of the algorithm are also described for other demographic scenarios that can be more suitable for analyzing the dynamics of genetic diversity of other pathogens in vitro and in vivo. For the case of the infinite-sites model, I derive analytical formulas for the expected number of polymorphic sites in sample of DNA sequences, and apply the developed simulation and analytical methods to explore the fit of the model to HIV genetic diversity based on serial samples of HIV DNA sequences from 9 HIV-infected individuals. The results particularly show that the estimates of the ratio of recombination rate over mutation rate can vary over time between very high and low values, which can be considered as a consequence of the impact of selection forces. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
