Robert,

I searched the web last April, but couldn't find anything on parallel mutations.. Considering their high likelihood when you have a lot of people with the same ancestral haplotype in a project, I was surprised. The only "publications" are on this list. Here are some threads where we discussed parallel mutations:

I'd like to hear more back from the list on parallel and back mutation.

Is there a professional paper on this?
