Identification and dynamics of a beneficial mutation in a long-term evolution experiment with <it>Escherichia coli</it>
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Twelve populations of <it>E. coli </it>were serially propagated for 20,000 generations in a glucose-supplemented minimal medium in order to study the dynamics of evolution. We sought to find and characterize one of the be...
