Biogeographic patterns in ocean microbes emerge in a neutral agent-based model.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 12 Sept 2014

Hellweger Ferdi L, van Sebille Erik, Fredrick Neil D

Abstract excerpt

A key question in ecology and evolution is the relative role of natural selection and neutral evolution in producing biogeographic patterns. We quantify the role of neutral processes by simulating division, mutation, and death of 100,000 individual marine bacteria cells with full 1 million-base-p...
