Population Genomics of Early Events in the Ecological Differentiation of Bacteria

Population Genomics of Early Events in the Ecological Differentiation of Bacteria

Genetic exchange is common among bacteria, but its effect on population diversity during ecological differentiation remains controversial. A fundamental question is whether advantageous mutations lead to selection of clonal genomes or, as in sexual eukaryotes, sweep through populations on their own....
