The spectrum of adaptive mutations in experimental evolution.

Abstract excerpt

A primary goal of recent work in experimental evolution is to probe the molecular basis of adaptation. This requires an understanding of the individual mutations in evolving populations: their identity, their physiological and fitness effects, and the interactions between them. The combination of high-throughput methods for laboratory evolution and next-generation sequencing methods now makes it possible to...
