Adaptation increases the likelihood of diversification in an experimental bacterial lineage.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 5 Feb 2008

Spencer Christine C, Tyerman Jabus, Bertrand Melanie, Doebeli Michael

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the mechanisms and processes that generate biological diversity is a fundamental problem in evolution and ecology. In the past decade, the theory of evolutionary branching and adaptive diversification has provided new perspectives for understanding the evolution of diversity caused...
