Insights into Evolutionary Dynamics: New Study Reveals the Evolution of Evolvability

• Evolvability and natural selection: Study shows how natural selection optimises genetic systems for future adaptations.
• Hypermutable locus: Discovery of a locus that generates mutations 10,000 times faster and enables rapid adaptation.
• Adaptation with foresight: Study shows how natural selection enables organisms to anticipate and adapt to future environmental changes.
