Roles of Mutation, Ploidy, and Recombination in Adaptive Evolution in Divergent Model Yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the Human Pathogenic Cryptococcus

2025-12-31

Abstract excerpt

Genetic variation underlies the capacity of populations to adapt, yet what drives how this variation is generated and maintained in natural populations remains poorly understood. Fundamental processes such as mutation, ploidy, and recombination are known to shape genetic variation and adaptive potential but are typically studied in isolation and under controlled laboratory conditions. How these processes act toget...
