Fitness-valley crossing in subdivided asexual populations

BioRxiv.

By: M. McLaren*

TL;DR: This work describes how subdivision alters the dynamics of adaptation from those in an equally sized unstructured population and gives a complete quantitative description of these dynamics for the island migration model, providing a general and intuitive framework for predicting the effects of spatial structure in other models and in natural populations.

Antibiotic-Induced Alterations of the Gut Microbiota Alter Secondary Bile Acid Production and Allow for Clostridium difficile Spore Germination and Outgrowth in the Large Intestine

MSphere, 1(1).

By: C. Theriot n, A. Bowman* & V. Young*

Ed(s): C. Ellermeier
