Fitness-dependent mutation rates in finite populations.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Aug 2011

Shaw F H, Baer C F

Abstract excerpt

Mutation rate may be condition dependent, whereby individuals in poor condition, perhaps from high mutation load, have higher mutation rates than individuals in good condition. Agrawal (J. Evol. Biol.15, 2002, 1004) explored the basic properties of fitness-dependent mutation rate (FDMR) in infinite populations and reported some heuristic results for finite populations. The key parameter governing how infinite...
