Models of experimental evolution: the role of genetic chance and selective necessity.

Genetics - 1 Nov 2000

Wahl L M, Krakauer D C

Abstract excerpt

We present a theoretical framework within which to analyze the results of experimental evolution. Rapidly evolving organisms such as viruses, bacteria, and protozoa can be induced to adapt to laboratory conditions on very short human time scales. Artificial adaptive radiation is characterized by a list of common observations; we offer a framework in which many of these repeated questions and patterns can be...
