Evolution of a single niche specialist in variable environments.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Nov 2007

Jasmin Jean-Nicolas, Kassen Rees

Abstract excerpt

The pattern (space versus time) and scale (relative to the lifetime of individuals) of environmental variation is thought to play a central role in governing the evolution of the ecological niche and the maintenance of genetic variance in fitness. To evaluate this idea, we serially propagated an initially genetically uniform population of the bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens for a few hundred generations in...
