Molecular evolution and population genetics of glutamate decarboxylase acid resistance pathway in lactic acid bacteria

Glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) pathway (GDP) is a major acid resistance mechanism enabling microorganisms’ survival in low pH environments. We aimed to study the molecular evolution and population genetics of GDP in Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) to understand evolutionary processes shaping adaptation to...
