Extremely rare variants reveal patterns of germline mutation rate heterogeneity in humans

Germline mutation rate is a critical parameter in the study of genetics and evolution. Here, Carlson et al. infer fine-scale patterns of human mutation rate heterogeneity by analyzing ~36 million singleton variants from 3560 whole-genome sequences.
