In situ evolutionary rate measurements show ecological success of recently emerged bacterial hybrids.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 27 Apr 2012

Denef Vincent J, Banfield Jillian F

Abstract excerpt

Few data are available on how quickly free-living microorganisms evolve. We analyzed biofilms collected from a well-defined acid mine drainage system over 9 years to investigate the processes and determine rates of bacterial evolution directly in the environment. Population metagenomic analyses o...
