Spontaneous Mutation Accumulation in Daphnia pulex in Selection-Free vs. Competitive Environments.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Jan 2017

Flynn Jullien M, Chain Frédéric J J, Schoen Daniel J, Cristescu Melania E

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the rates, spectra, and fitness effects of spontaneous mutations is fundamental to answering key questions in evolution, molecular biology, disease genetics, and conservation biology. To estimate mutation rates and evaluate the effect of selection on new mutations, we propagated mutation accumulation (MA) lines of Daphnia pulex for more than 82 generations and maintained a non-MA population under...
