Standing genetic variation in contingency loci drives the rapid adaptation of Campylobacter jejuni to a novel host.

PloS one - 24 Jan 2011

Jerome John P, Bell Julia A, Plovanich-Jones Anne E, Barrick Jeffrey E, Brown C Titus, Mansfield Linda S

Abstract excerpt

The genome of the food-borne pathogen Campylobacter jejuni contains multiple highly mutable sites, or contingency loci. It has been suggested that standing variation at these loci is a mechanism for rapid adaptation to a novel environment, but this phenomenon has not been shown experimentally. In...
