The Nonstationary Dynamics of Fitness Distributions: Asexual Model with Epistasis and Standing Variation.
Genetics - 1 Dec 2016
Martin Guillaume, Roques Lionel
Abstract excerpt
Various models describe asexual evolution by mutation, selection, and drift. Some focus directly on fitness, typically modeling drift but ignoring or simplifying both epistasis and the distribution of mutation effects (traveling wave models). Others follow the dynamics of quantitative traits determining fitness (Fisher's geometric model), imposing a complex but fixed form of mutation effects and epistasis, and...
