Experimental evolution reveals natural selection on standing genetic variation.

Nature genetics - 1 Feb 2009

Teotónio Henrique, Chelo Ivo M, Bradić Martina, Rose Michael R, Long Anthony D

Abstract excerpt

Evolution depends on genetic variation generated by mutation or recombination from standing genetic variation. In sexual organisms, little is known about the molecular population genetics of adaptation and reverse evolution. We carry out 50 generations of experimental reverse evolution in populations of Drosophila melanogaster, previously differentiated by forward evolution, and follow changes in the frequency of...
