Evolutionary and Physiological Adaptation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to Elevated Concentrations of Sodium Chloride

I have investigated the evolutionary response of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to salt (NaCl) stress, and the physiological mechanisms responsible for this adaptation. Populations of P. aeruginosa founded from the same ancestral genotype were selected at three different concentrations of NaCl, low, moderat...
