Is adaptation limited by mutation? A timescale-dependent effect of genetic diversity on the adaptive substitution rate in animals.
Whether adaptation is limited by the beneficial mutation supply is a long-standing question of evolutionary genetics, which is more generally related to the determination of the adaptive substitution rate and its relationship with species effective population size (Ne) and genetic diversity. Empiric...
