[HTML][HTML] From genotypes to organisms: State-of-the-art and perspectives of a cornerstone in evolutionary dynamics
Understanding how genotypes map onto phenotypes, fitness, and eventually organisms is
arguably the next major missing piece in a fully predictive theory of evolution. We refer to this …
