Adaptive evolution in single species bacterial biofilms.

FEMS microbiology letters - 1 Apr 2009

Kraigsley Alison M, Finkel Steven E

Abstract excerpt

Little is known about the dynamics of cellular growth, death, and evolution within bacterial biofilms. Here we show evidence of evolution within single-species biofilms in real time. Escherichia coli harvested from 22-day-old biofilms express a competitive advantage over cells incubated in biofil...
