How microscopic epistasis and clonal interference shape the fitness trajectory in a spin glass model of microbial long-term evolution
N. M. Boffi, Y. Guo, C. H. Rycroft, A. Amir
This study uses a computational model to show how microscopic epistasis and clonal interference affect microbial fitness trajectories, finding that epistasis slows growth while clonal interference speeds it up under certain conditions.
