Antagonistic Coevolution Drives Whack-a-Mole Sensitivity in Gene Regulatory Networks.

Robustness, defined as tolerance to perturbations such as mutations and environmental fluctuations, is pervasive in biological systems. However, robustness often coexists with its counterpart, evolvability--the ability of perturbations to generate new phenotypes. Previous models of gene regulatory n...
