Fisher’s geometric model describes biological fitness landscapes by combining a linear map from the discrete space of genotypes to an n-dimensional Euclidean phenotype space with a nonlinear, single-peaked phenotype-fitness map. Genotypes are represented by binary sequences of length L, and the phenotypic effects of mutations at different sites are represented by L random vectors drawn from an isotropic Gaussian distribution. Recent work has shown that the interplay between the genotypic and…

### Epistasis and Adaptation on Fitness Landscapes

• Biology
Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics

Fitness landscape theory and experiments are reviewed and their implications for the role of epistasis in adaptation are discussed and theoretical expectations in the light of empirical fitness landscapes are discussed.

It is suggested that adaptive introgression and de novo mutations alter the shape of the fitness landscape, providing key connections in adaptive walks circumventing fitness valleys and triggering the evolution of novelty during adaptive radiation.

The analysis shows that thephenotypic dimension, which is often referred to as phenotypic complexity, does not generally correlate with the complexity of fitness landscapes and that even organisms with a single Phenotypic trait can have complex landscapes.

It is shown that a classical NP-hard optimization problem, number partitioning, is essentially equivalent to the random cost problem, which explains the bad performance of heuristic approaches to the number partitions problem.
