Intra-Population Competition during Adaptation to Increased Temperature in an RNA Bacteriophage

Evolution of RNA bacteriophages of the family <i>Leviviridae</i> is governed by the high error rates of their RNA-dependent RNA polymerases. This fact, together with their large population sizes, leads to the generation of highly heterogeneous populations that adapt rapidly to most chang...
