This project conducts a large-scale evolution experiment with the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans to investigate the genetic basis of adaptation. It examines how genetic variation and environmental changes influence evolutionary dynamics and diversity.
The process of adaptation to novel environments is of extraordinary importance to understand the existence of biological diversity.
The development of a theory of adaptation during the last 150 years identified natural selection as its cause, and the conditions under which it depends on the existence of the heritable variation encoded in DNA sequences, introduced in finite populations by mutation, recombination and migration.
Despite the considerable knowledge about the mechanism of evolution, a…
