Can the experimental evolution programme help us elucidate the genetic basis of adaptation in nature?

Molecular ecology - 1 Jan 2016

Bailey Susan F, Bataillon Thomas

Abstract excerpt

There have been a variety of approaches taken to try to characterize and identify the genetic basis of adaptation in nature, spanning theoretical models, experimental evolution studies and direct tests of natural populations. Theoretical models can provide formalized and detailed hypotheses regarding evolutionary processes and patterns, from which experimental evolution studies can then provide important proofs...
