Using colony size to measure fitness in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Using colony size to measure fitness in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Competitive fitness assays in liquid culture have been a mainstay for characterizing experimental evolution of microbial populations. Growth of microbial strains has also been extensively characterized by colony size and could serve as a useful alternative if translated to per generation measurement...
