A design-constraint trade-off underpins the diversity in ecologically important traits in species Escherichia coli.

The ISME journal - 1 Oct 2013

Phan Katherine, Ferenci Thomas

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial species are internally diverse in genomic and multi-locus gene comparisons. The ecological causes of phenotypic and genotypic diversity within species are far less well understood. Here, we focus on the competitive fitness for growth on nutrients within Escherichia coli, an internally rich species. Competition experiments in nutrient-limited chemostats revealed that members of the ECOR collection...
