The role of sigma factor competition in bacterial adaptation under prolonged starvation.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 May 2022

Abstract excerpt

The study of adaptive microbial evolution in the laboratory can illuminate the genetic mechanisms of gaining fitness under a pre-defined set of selection factors. Laboratory evolution of bacteria under long-term starvation has gained importance in recent years because of its ability to uncover adaptive strategies that overcome prolonged nutrient limitation, a condition often encountered by natural microbes. In...
