Virus evolution is a common process of pathogen adaption to host population and ***,a small but important fraction of virus mutations are reported to contribute to higher risks of host infection,which is one of the major determinants of infectious diseases outbreaks at population *** key mutations contributing to transmission advantage of a genetic variant often grow and reach fixation *** on classic epidemiology theories of disease transmission,we proposed a mechanistic explanation of the process that between-host transmission advantage may shape the observed logistic curve of the mutation proportion in *** logistic growth of mutation is further generalized by incorporating time-varying selective pressure to account for impacts of external factors on pathogen *** proposed model is implemented in real-world data of COVID-19 to capture the emerging trends and changing dynamics of the B.1.1.7 strains of SARS-CoV-2 in *** model characterizes and establishes the underlying theoretical mechanism that shapes the logistic growth of mutation in population.
