Summary

Description
English: The image depicts local fitness environments along an evolutionary path. The surfaces are based on measured data, and show the changes in fitness that can be achieved by a single base pair substitution. The first disc represents a duplicate repressor-operator pair, while the last represents a diverged pair. In this manner, a highly complex, multidimensional fitness landscape can be portrayed. The simulated paths explain why independent protein-DNA interactions can evolve rapidly
