Mutation and selection induce correlations between selection coefficients and mutation rates

B. L. Gitschlag, A. V. Cano, J. L. Payne, D. M. McCandlish, A. Stoltzfus

The paper analyzes the joint distribution of selection coefficients and mutation rates under the SSWM regime, showing that correlations can arise even without initial correlations.

Selfish mitochondria exploit nutrient status across different levels of selection

B. L. Gitschlag, A. T. Tate, M. R. Patel

This study shows that selfish mitochondrial DNA variants exploit nutrient status to compete within hosts, with their advantage dependent on the FoxO transcription factor DAF-16 during food scarcity.
