Insertion-sequence-mediated mutations both promote and constrain evolvability during a long-term experiment with bacteria

Insertion sequences (IS) are ubiquitous bacterial mobile genetic elements, and the mutations they cause can be deleterious, neutral, or beneficial. The long-term dynamics of IS elements and their effects on bacteria are poorly understood, including whether they are primarily genomic parasites or imp...
