Query: Extending the applicability of Thermal Dynamics to Evolutionary Biology   In the past years, a remarkable mapping has been found between the dynamics
of a population of M individuals undergoing random mutations and selection, and
that of a single system in contact with a thermal bath with temperature 1/M.
This correspondence holds under the somewhat restrictive condition that the
population is dominated by a single type at almost all times, punctuated by
rare successive mutations. Here we argue that such thermal dynamics will hold
more generally, specifically in systems with rugged fitness landscapes. This
includes cases with strong clonal interference, where a number of concurrent
mutants dominate the population. The problem becomes closely analogous to the
experimental situation of glasses subjected to controlled variations of
parameters such as temperature, pressure or magnetic fields. Non-trivial
suggestions from the field of glasses may be thus proposed for evolutionary
systems - including a large part of the numerical simulation procedures - that
in many cases would have been counter intuitive without this background.
