Recombination Alters the Dynamics of Adaptation on Standing Variation in Laboratory Yeast Populations.
Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Jan 2018
Kosheleva Katya, Desai Michael M
Abstract excerpt
The rates and selective effects of beneficial mutations, together with population genetic factors such as population size and recombination rate, determine the outcomes of adaptation and the signatures this process leaves in patterns of genetic diversity. Previous experimental studies of microbia...
