BACKGROUND: In HIV-1 evolution, a 100–100,000 fold discrepancy between census size and effective population size (N(e)) has been noted. Although it is well known that selection can reduce N(e), high in vivo mutation and recombination rates complicate attempts to quantify the effects of selection on...
