Figure 3

Average fitness of recombinants from diverged populations as a function of crossover position. Recombinants at all possible positions were tested from the equilibrated and diverged populations from Figure 2. Averages of the same number of high-, medium- and low-designable structures are represented with solid lines and the same symbols as in Figure 1. In addition, results for a particular low-designable structure are shown with a dashed line and an 'X' to demonstrate that there is considerable variation among low-designable structures in the crossover position of the lowest-fitness recombinants (this was also replicated four times).
