The effect of population structure on the adaptive radiation of microbial populations evolving in spatially structured environments.

Ecology letters - 1 Sept 2006

Abstract excerpt

Spatial structure is thought to be an important factor influencing the emergence and maintenance of genetic diversity. Previous studies have demonstrated that environmental heterogeneity, provided by spatial structure, leads to adaptive radiation of populations. In the present study, we investigate not only the impact of environmental heterogeneity on adaptive radiation, but also of population fragmentation and...
