We also see something rather curious. It looks like per gene nucleotide diversity at the beginning of the experiment correlates with the number of substitutions acquired in the same region at the end of the experiment. I really wonder what the causes are (selection/mutation).

We see very similar effects to what has been seen in the Lenski experiment. For example linear accumulation of mutations or diminishing fitness effects of novel mutations.
