Adaptive Mutation Rates

Adaptive Mutation Rates is a theoretical construct in evolutionary biology that posits mutation rates are subject to natural selection and can evolve in response to environmental or genetic conditions to optimize adaptive potential, distinguishing it from neutral or fixed mutation rate models by emphasizing the selective advantage of regulated mutability.
