Abstract excerpt
Genetic background has the potential to influence both the tempo and trajectory of adaptive change: Different genotypes of a given species may adopt varied solutions to the same environmental challenge, or they may approach the same solution at different rates. Laboratory selection has been widely used to experimentally examine the evolutionary consequences of variation in genetic background, although largely...
