#mutationrate — Public Fediverse posts

In some #bacteria, #MutationRate depends on environmental factors (e.g. pop'n density). Why? @RowanCallumGre1 @Rok_Krasovec @knightjjar &co show that denser microbial populations detox their environment more efficiently, reducing mutation rate #PLOSBiology https://plos.io/3S8qQXy

Genomic stability: A double-edged sword for sharks https://phys.org/news/2023-10-genomic-stability-double-edged-sword-sharks.html

Low mutation rate in #EpauletteSharks is consistent with a slow rate of #evolution in #sharks: Ashley Sendell-Price et al. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-023-42238-x

"With an estimated #MutationRate of 7×10-10 per base pair per generation, they have the lowest mutation rate yet recorded in #vertebrates. It is ten to twenty times lower than in #mammals."

Ever wondered what mutation rates might be like for marine invertebrates? #preprint led by Iva Popovic provides the first de novo #mutationrate estimate for a #marineinvertebrate ... spoiler alert, it's pretty high.
