Evolution of Sporulation in Bacillus Subtilis: Functional Loss and Evolutionary Consequences
The loss of phenotypes, a phenomenon capable of leading to ecological specialization, has been observed to occur readily during evolution and is an important contributor to the phenotypic variation observed in nature. While the loss of phenotypes is often observed, the population genetic processes r...
