# Title of Dataset:Sex, amitosis, and evolvability in the ciliate Tetrahymena thermophila experiment 1-3 --- Three different evolution experiments were performed using three sets of parents and their offspring. The maximum growth rate (r-max, doublings/hour) of each replicate population was measured periodically as populations evolved. The r-max and increase in r-max each have there own column with a row for each population at each timepoint. ## Description of the Data and file structure The file for experiment 1 contains an additional column indicating the temperature (in celsius) at which populations were evolved and growth rate measured. For experiment 1 the strain and genotype columns contain redundant information. ## Sharing/access Information Was data derived from another source? If yes, list source(s):
