Adaptive laboratory evolution of <i>Escherichia coli</i> under acid stress
2019-06-04
Abstract excerpt
The ability of Escherichia coli to tolerate acid stress is important for its survival and colonization in the human digestive tract. Here, we performed adaptive laboratory evolution of the laboratory strain E. coli K-12 MG1655 at pH 5.5 in glucose minimal medium. By 800 generations, six independent populations under evolution reached 18.0% higher growth rates than their starting strain at pH 5.5, while maintaini...
