Consequences of mutation accumulation for growth performance are more likely to be resource-dependent at higher temperatures

Consequences of mutation accumulation for growth performance are more likely to be resource-dependent at higher temperatures

Abstract Background Mutation accumulation (MA) has profound ecological and evolutionary consequences. One example is that accumulation of conditionally neutral mutations leads to fitness trade-offs among heterogenous habitats which cause population divergence. Here we suggest that temperature, which...
