Gene Expansion and Positive Selection as Bacterial Adaptations to Oligotrophic Conditions

We examined the genomic adaptations of prevalent bacterial taxa in a highly nutrient- and ion-depleted freshwater environment located in the secondary cooling water system of a nuclear research reactor. Using genome-centric metagenomics, we found that none of the prevalent bacterial taxa were relate...
