Evolution in eggs and phases: experimental evolution of fecundity and reproductive timing in Caenorhabditis elegans

To examine the role of natural selection in fecundity in a variety of Caenorhabditis elegans genetic backgrounds, we used an experimental evolution protocol to evolve 14 distinct genetic strains over 15–20 generations. We were able to generate 790 distinct genealogies, which provided information on...
