Rate of adaptation in sexuals and asexuals: a solvable model of the Fisher-Muller effect.

Genetics - 1 Nov 2013

Park Su-Chan, Krug Joachim

Abstract excerpt

The adaptation of large asexual populations is hampered by the competition between independently arising beneficial mutations in different individuals, which is known as clonal interference. In classic work, Fisher and Muller proposed that recombination provides an evolutionary advantage in large populations by alleviating this competition. Based on recent progress in quantifying the speed of adaptation in...
