Abstract excerpt
While mutational processes operating in the Escherichia coli genome have been revealed by multiple laboratory experiments, the contribution of these processes to accumulation of bacterial polymorphism and evolution in natural environments is unknown. To address this question, we reconstruct signatures of distinct mutational processes from experimental data on E. coli hypermutators, and ask how these processes...
