Epistasis is central to genetic system structure and evolution

This reasoning chain explains that epistatic interactions among genes are critical to the structure and evolution of genetic systems, as supported by classic and contemporary studies. These interactions violate additivity and independence assumptions, demand richer models like information theory, and are empirically observed in both classic model organism work and evolutionary genetics studies.
