- Additional information
- This paper contributes a novel multi-level evolutionary algorithm whereby the properties of the evolving units are emergent from a lower-level chemical simulation system. This is significant because it is the first work to simulate the evolution of entire bacterial populations in a stochastic model. It unifies a large number of experimental results that had previously appeared unconnected, thus providing both credible and novel explanations for the evolution of diauxic growth.
