Analytical description of mutational effects in competing asexual populations.

Genetics - 1 Dec 2007

Pinkel Daniel

Abstract excerpt

The adaptation of a population to a new environment is a result of selection operating on a suite of stochastically occurring mutations. This article presents an analytical approach to understanding the population dynamics during adaptation, specifically addressing a system in which periods of growth are separated by selection in bottlenecks. The analysis derives simple expressions for the average properties of...
