'Scientists uncovered how whole-genome duplication emerges and remains stable over thousands of generations of evolution in the lab.'
No, the title is accurate as currently state: "Scientists uncover key mechanism in evolution: Whole-genome duplication drives long-term adaptation"
Evolution is as fascinating as it is predictive. Very neat read.
Assuming the title was trimmed, I would remove that last “drives” since it can be interpreted as a noun.
Yes, I had to trim the title to the character limit. Thanks for the tip for next time I run into this.
Especially because there's a thing called a gene drive, and i thought this was a corresponding thing for whole genome duplication: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_drive
I agree that the summary I copied and pasted doesn’t mention the impact on long-term adaptation. The title is a better summary than the summary!
