Evolution with a seed bank: The population genetic consequences of microbial dormancy

Dormancy is a bet‐hedging strategy that allows organisms to persist through conditions that are suboptimal for growth and reproduction by entering a reversible state of reduced metabolic activity. Dormancy allows a population to maintain a reservoir of genetic and phenotypic diversity (i.e., a seed...
