Rapid Increase in frequency of gene copy-number variants during experimental evolution in Caenorhabditis elegans
BACKGROUND: Gene copy-number variation (CNVs), which provides the raw material for the evolution of novel genes, is widespread in natural populations. We investigated whether CNVs constitute a common mechanism of genetic change during adaptation in experimental Caenorhabditis elegans populations. Ou...
