Deskripsi

How reproducible evolutionary processes are remains an important question in evolutionary biology. Here, the authors compile a compendium of more than 15,000 mutation events for Escherichia coli under 178 distinct environmental settings, and develop an ensemble of predictors to predict evolution at a gene level.
