Rapid evolutionary change in trait correlations of single proteins.

Abstract excerpt

Many organismal traits are genetically determined and covary in evolving populations. The resulting trait correlations can either help or hinder evolvability - the ability to bring forth new and adaptive phenotypes. The evolution of evolvability requires that trait correlations themselves must be able to evolve, but we know little about this ability. To learn more about it, we here study two evolvable systems, a...
