In this paper a widely-studied model in Population Genetics, the so-called Infinitely- Many-Alleles model with neutral mutation, is reinterpreted in terms of a timedependent Bayesian nonparametric statistical model, where the prior of the model is described by the Neutral Fleming-Viot process.

We define and investigate a new class of measure-valued Markov chains by resorting to ideas formulated in Bayesian nonparametrics related to the Dirichlet process and the Gibbs sampler. Dependent random probability measures in this class are shown to be stationary and ergodic with respect to the...
