Large Chromosomal Rearrangements during a Long-Term Evolution Experiment with <named-content content-type="genus-species">Escherichia coli</named-content>

ABSTRACT Large-scale rearrangements may be important in evolution because they can alter chromosome organization and gene expression in ways not possible through point mutations. In a long-term evolution experiment, twelve Escherichia coli populations have been propagated in a glucose-limited enviro...
