Title: Environmental stress and the effects of mutation

Description: The electronic version of this article is the complete one and can be found online at http://jbiol.com/content/2/2/12
Mutations are the ultimate fuel for evolution, but most mutations have a negative effect on fitness. It has been widely accepted that these deleterious fitness effects are, on average, magnified in stressful environments. Recent results suggest that the effects of deleterious mutations can, instead, sometimes be ameliorated in stressful environments.
