Adaptive evolution of <i>P. aeruginosa</i> in human airways shows phenotypic convergence despite diverse patterns of genomic changes
2023-07-19
Abstract excerpt
Selective forces in the environment drive bacterial adaptation to novel niches, choosing the fitter variants in the population. However, in dynamic and changing environments, the evolutionary processes controlling bacterial adaptation are difficult to monitor. Here, we follow 9 cystic fibrosis patients chronically infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa , as a proxy for bacterial adaptation. We identify and describe...
