High-Throughput Identification of Adaptive Mutations in Experimentally Evolved Yeast Populations.

High-throughput sequencing has enabled genetic screens that can rapidly identify mutations that occur during experimental evolution. The presence of a mutation in an evolved lineage does not, however, constitute proof that the mutation is adaptive, given the well-known and widespread phenomenon of g...
