Bacterial evolution through the selective loss of beneficial Genes. Trade-offs in expression involving two loci.

Genetics - 1 Aug 2003

Zinser Erik R, Schneider Dominique, Blot Michel, Kolter Roberto

Abstract excerpt

The loss of preexisting genes or gene activities during evolution is a major mechanism of ecological specialization. Evolutionary processes that can account for gene loss or inactivation have so far been restricted to one of two mechanisms: direct selection for the loss of gene activities that ar...
