Genetic variation of a bacterial pathogen within individuals with cystic fibrosis provides a record of selective pressures

Advances in sequencing have enabled the identification of mutations acquired by bacterial pathogens during infection(1-10). However, it remains unclear whether adaptive mutations fix in the population or lead to pathogen diversification within the patient(11,12). Here, we study the genotypic diversi...
