Colwellia psychrerythraea strains from distant deep sea basins show adaptation to local conditions

Colwellia psychrerythraea strains from distant deep sea basins show adaptation to local conditions

Many studies have shown that microbes, which share nearly identical 16S rRNA genes, can have highly divergent genomes. Microbes from distinct parts of the ocean also exhibit biogeographic patterning. Here we seek to better understand how certain microbes from the same species have adapted for grow...
