Robustness promotes evolvability of thermotolerance in an RNA virus
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The ability for an evolving population to adapt to a novel environment is achieved through a balance of robustness and evolvability. Robustness is the invariance of phenotype in the face of perturbation and evolvability is the capaci...
