Evidence implicating cancer drivers can be sparse when limited to clonal events. Here, the authors present a retrovirus driven in vivo lymphomagenesis time course including hundreds of thousands of subclonal mutations and demonstrate the utility of these in mapping the selective forces affecting cancer gene loci, including negatively selected mutations.
