The evolution of phenotypic switching in subdivided populations.

Genetics - 1 Apr 2014

Carja Oana, Liberman Uri, Feldman Marcus W

Abstract excerpt

Stochastic switching is an example of phenotypic bet hedging, where offspring can express a phenotype different from that of their parents. Phenotypic switching is well documented in viruses, yeast, and bacteria and has been extensively studied when the selection pressures vary through time. However, there has been little work on the evolution of phenotypic switching under both spatially and temporally...
