In a, we illustrate the nonlinear relationship between a one-dimensional phenotype with a single optimum and fitness, for beneficial mutations with different magnitudes with respect to the distance to the unique fitness optimum. When the effects of mutations on the phenotype are additive and the optimum is not overshot, addition of all mutations along a mutational trajectory (i.e., 000 → 001, etc.) always leads to higher fitness than the ancestor (000) as denoted by a plus sign. As the optimum is overshot, mutational trajectories lead to fitness values that are no longer higher than the ancestor. However, if there is a one-dimensional phenotype-fitness map with a single optimum, along a mutational trajectory all the mutations with a higher fitness than the ancestor must be aggregated. Mutational trajectories starting from the ancestor and adding beneficial mutations that cause decreases in fitness followed by increases in fitness require a multi-dimensional phenotype, as illustrated in b, or the unlikely case of a one-dimensional phenotype with multiple optima
