The effect of spontaneous mutations on competitive ability.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Feb 2013

Schaack S, Allen D E, Latta L C, Morgan K K, Lynch M

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the impact of spontaneous mutations on fitness has many theoretical and practical applications in biology. Although mutational effects on individual morphological or life-history characters have been measured in several classic genetic model systems, there are few estimates of the rate of decline due to mutation for complex fitness traits. Here, we estimate the effects of mutation on competitive...
