A comparative study of adaptive mutation operators for metaheuristics [PDF]
Genetic algorithms (GAs) are a class of stochastic optimization methods inspired by the principles of natural evolution. Adaptation of strategy parameters and genetic operators has become an important and promising research area in GAs.

Mutation testing on an object-oriented framework: An experience report [PDF]
This is the preprint version of the article - Copyright @ 2011 ElsevierContext The increasing presence of Object-Oriented (OO) programs in industrial systems is progressively drawing the attention of mutation researchers toward this paradigm.

We used 60Co-γ ray and electron beam irradiation to mutate Bacillus velezensis to breed genetically stable mutant strains. The mutant strains were screened and re-screened by plate confrontation and the four-point method to study their antibacterial ...

Efficiency of carcinogenesis with and without a mutator mutation [PDF]
Carcinogenesis involves the acquisition of multiple genetic changes altering various cellular phenotypes. These changes occur within the fixed time period of a human lifespan, and mechanisms that accelerate this process are more likely to result in clinical cancers.

Estimating the Rate of Mutation to a Mutator Phenotype
A mutator is a variant in a population of organisms whose mutation rate is higher than the average mutation rate in the population. For genetic and population dynamics reasons, mutators are produced and survive with much greater frequency than anti-mutators (variants with a lower-than-average mutation rate).

Phenotypic diversity in mutagenized population of urdbean (Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper)
The present study was conducted to assess the extent of induced genetic variability and to determine the inheritance pattern of various yield contributing phenotypic traits in M2 and M3 generations of urdbean following mutagenesis with single and ...

Mutation rate plasticity in rifampicin resistance depends on Escherichia coli cell–cell interactions [PDF]
Variation of mutation rate at a particular site in a particular genotype, in other words mutation rate plasticity (MRP), can be caused by stress or ageing. However, mutation rate control by other factors is less well characterized.

Are Protein Shape-Encoded Lowest-Frequency Motions a Key Phenotype Selected by Evolution?
At the very deepest molecular level, the mechanisms of life depend on the operation of proteins, the so-called “workhorses” of the cell. Proteins are nanoscale machines that transform energy into useful cellular work, such as ion or nutrient transport ...
