Comparison of microbial mutation rates under the Luria–Delbrück protocol is a routine laboratory task. However, execution of this important task has been hampered by the lack of proper statistical methods. Visual inspection or improper use of the t test and the Mann–Whitney test can impair the quality of genetic research. This paper proposes a unified framework for constructing likelihood ratio tests...
Since 2000 several review papers have been published about the analysis of experimental data obtained using the Luria–Delbrück protocol. These timely papers cleared much of the confusion surrounding various methods for estimating or comparing mutation rates. As a result, today the fluctuation test is more widely applied with much improved accuracy. The present paper provides guidelines on a few remaining...
