Complex Adaptations Can Drive the Evolution of the Capacitor [PSI (+)], Even with Realistic Rates of Yeast Sex

The [PSI(+)] prion may enhance evolvability by revealing previously cryptic genetic variation, but it is unclear whether such evolvability properties could be favored by natural selection. Sex inhibits the evolution of other putative evolvability mechanisms, such as mutator alleles. This paper explo...
