    How microscopic epistasis and clonal interference shape the fitness trajectory in a spin glass model of microbial long-term evolution

    Nicholas M Boffi, Yipei Guo ... Ariel Amir
    High-resolution simulations of evolving microbial populations reveal that microscopic epistasis slows the rate of adaptation, while clonal interference can either speed it up or leave it fixed.
