Exploiting the Adaptation Dynamics to Predict the Distribution of Beneficial Fitness Effects

Exploiting the Adaptation Dynamics to Predict the Distribution of Beneficial Fitness Effects

Adaptation of asexual populations is driven by beneficial mutations and therefore the dynamics of this process, besides other factors, depends on the distribution of beneficial fitness effects. It is known that on uncorrelated fitness landscapes, this distribution can only be of three types: truncated, exponential and power law. We performed …
