Testing for epistasis between deleterious mutations in a parasitoid wasp.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jul 2003

Rivero Ana, Balloux Francois, West Stuart A

Abstract excerpt

Determining the way in which deleterious mutations interact to effect fitness is crucial to numerous areas in evolutionary biology. For example, if each additional mutation leads to a greater decrease in log fitness than the last, termed synergistic epistasis, then sex and recombination provide a...
