Abstract excerpt
Studies of the role of sex in evolution typically involve a longitudinal comparison of a single ancestor to several intermediate descendants and to one terminally evolved descendant after many generations of adaptation under a given selective regime. Here we take a complementary, statistical approach to sex in evolution, by describing the distribution of phenotypic similarity in a population of yeast F1 meiotic...
