Development of a Comprehensive Genotype-to-

Fitness Map of Adaptation-Driving Mutations in

Yeast

Graphical Abstract


Highlights


d High-throughput method to survey adaptive mutations in


laboratory evolution


d Isolation of thousands of independent single adaptive events


genome-wide


d Bulk fitness measurements and genotyping generates a


genotype-to-fitness map


d Large sample size allows sensitive detection of fitness


differences even within genes

In Brief
How can the entire suite of adaptive
mutations that occur in an evolving
population be pinpointed and each of
their fitness effects measured?
