Proportionality between variances in gene expression induced by noise and mutation: consequence of evolutionary robustness
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Characterization of robustness and plasticity of phenotypes is a basic issue in evolutionary and developmental biology. The robustness and plasticity are concerned with changeability of a biological system against external perturbati...
