The relation of recombination to mutational advance

H. J. Muller's paper on the relation of recombination to mutational advance. The companion cites it for Muller's ratchet, by which small asexual populations accumulate errors, and warns that isolated self-editing lineages may do the same. It is one of the costs and limits of noogenetic evolution (§6.5).
