Mechanisms and selection of evolvability: experimental evidence.

Abstract excerpt

The vast number of species we see around us today, all stemming from a common ancestor, clearly demonstrates the capacity of organisms to adapt to new environments. Understanding the underlying basis of differences in the capacity of genotypes to adapt - that is, their evolvability - has become a major research field. Several mechanisms have been demonstrated to influence evolvability, including differences in...
