Evolutionary biology

a test statistic comparing the timing of internal nodes in a phylogeny with a constant-rate birth process to detect slowing or speeding of diversification.

In evolutionary biology, gamma statistic refers to a test statistic comparing the timing of internal nodes in a phylogeny with a constant-rate birth process to detect slowing or speeding of diversification. This meaning comes from Pybus (2000) in Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences.[1]
