The group of Isometries of Shahshahani metric

Let $$M=\{(x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n)\in \mathbb{R}^n\mid x_i>0,\;i=1,2,\ldots,n\}$$ For $X=(x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n)\in M$ put $|X|=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i$.

We consider the Shahshahani Riemannian metric $g$ on $M$ with diagonal tensor metric $g_{ii}=\frac{|X|}{x_i}$.

What is the dimension and the precise structure of the group of all isometries of $(M,g)$?
