Warmer Climate may Increase the Harmful Effects of New Mutations

Warmer Climate may Increase the Harmful Effects of New Mutations

A warmer global climate can cause mutations to have more severe consequences for the health of organisms through their detrimental effect on protein function. This may have major repercussions on organisms' ability to adapt to, and survive in, the altered habitats of the future. This is shown in a new Uppsala University research study now published in the scientific journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B.
