Fitness landscapes emerging from pharmacodynamic functions in the evolution of multidrug resistance.

abstract：:The relative roles of natural and sexual selection in promoting evolutionary lineage divergence remains controversial and difficult to assess in natural systems. Local adaptation through natural selection is known to play a central role in promoting evolutionary divergence, yet secondary sexual traits can vary widely ...
