Evolving mutation rate advances the invasion speed of a sexual species.

BMC evolutionary biology - 26 Jun 2017

Cobben Marleen M P, Mitesser Oliver, Kubisch Alexander

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Many species are shifting their ranges in response to global climate change. Range expansions are known to have profound effects on the genetic composition of populations. The evolution of dispersal during range expansion increases invasion speed, provided that a species can adapt sufficiently fast to novel local conditions. Genetic diversity at the expanding range border is however depleted due to...
