Order invariance of fitness makes evolution predictable despite strong history-dependent effects
Environmental change is ubiquitous in nature, yet understanding its effect on the predictability of evolution remains a challenge. Previous work in microbes has shown that growth and fitness in a particular environment can depend strongly on the environments encountered previously. If such history-dependent effects are...
