A case of adaptation through a mutation in a tandem duplication during experimental evolution in Escherichia coli

BACKGROUND: DNA duplications constitute important precursors for genome variation. Here we analyzed an unequal duplication harboring a beneficial mutation that may provide alternative evolutionary outcomes. RESULTS: We characterized this evolutionary event during experimental evolution for only 100...
