Adaptive mgl-regulatory mutations and genetic diversity evolving in glucose-limited Escherichia coli populations.
Environmental microbiology - 1 Feb 1999

Abstract excerpt
The mutational adaptation of E. coli to low glucose concentrations was studied in chemostats over 280 generations of growth. All members of six independent populations acquired increased fitness through the acquisition of mutations at the mgl locus, increasing the binding protein-dependent transp...
