This project investigates how the dominance of mutations and the ploidy level affect natural selection in Bryophytes, which have a unique life cycle with both haploid and diploid phases. By using comparative genomics, it aims to enhance understanding of adaptation and speciation processes in these organisms.
Natural selection is a pillar of evssNatural selection is a pillar of evolutionary biology: it tends to fix beneficial mutations and remove deleterious ones.
But the factors that determine selection efficacy are yet poorly understood. A proposed factor is the interaction between mutations? dominance and ploidy level: recessivity should reduce selection efficacy in diploids but not in haploids.
Methodological limits make this challenging to test in species with a diploid-dominant life cycle.
