A glance at evolvability: a theoretical analysis of its role in the
evolutionary dynamics of cell populations
Evolvability is defined as the ability of a population to generate heritable variation to facilitate its adaptation to new environments or selection pressures. In this article, we consider evolvability as a phenotypic trait subject to evolution and discuss its implications in the adaptation of cell populations. We explore the evolutionary …
