Theoretical models and data analysis are to be used to study               intragenic recombination in bacteria, as well as other aspects of               population dynamics that can be inferred from statistical                       analysis of DNA sequences.  A typical question is (i) attempt to                estimate the relative strength of classical genetic drift and                   gene conversion as conservative forces in equilibrium allele                    distributions in prokaryotes.  Recently developed statistical                   techniques for analysing DNA sequences have shown strong evidence               for common between-strain gene conversion involving segments of                 300 base pairs or less in the bacterium Escherichia coli.  Other                topics proposed are to (ii) study the statistical power and                     consistency of these tests, (iii) develop statistical techniques                for estimating the frequency of this type of intragenic                         recombination with strains external to a sample.
