Competition-driven eco-evolutionary feedback reshapes bacteriophage lambda’s fitness landscape and enables speciation
Abstract A major challenge in evolutionary biology is explaining how populations navigate rugged fitness landscapes without getting trapped on local optima. One idea illustrated by adaptive dynamics theory is that as populations adapt, their newly enhanced capacities to exploit resources alter fitne...
