  1. Estimates of the mean evolutionary rate (μ, substitutions site-1 year-1) and median time of the most recent common ancestor (Tmrca, year) of the HIV-1 CRF12_BF and CRF38_BF epidemics (95% HPD intervals in parentheses). The results reported are the combined estimates of two independent runs. a Informative prior distribution of μ (1.5 Ă— 10-3-2.5 Ă— 10-3) for the CRF38_BF pol data set was selected from: HuĂ© et al. [38], Salemi et al.[39], Bello et al.[40], and Passaes et al. [41].
