Muller's Ratchet and compensatory mutation in Caenorhabditis briggsae mitochondrial genome evolution
BACKGROUND: The theory of Muller' Ratchet predicts that small asexual populations are doomed to accumulate ever-increasing deleterious mutation loads as a consequence of the magnified power of genetic drift and mutation that accompanies small population size. Evidence for Muller's Ratchet...
