Adaptive strategies under prolonged starvation and role of slow growth in bacterial fitness

Abstract: Adaptive evolution has the power to illuminate genetic mechanisms under a pre-defined set of selection factors in a controlled environment. Laboratory evolution of bacteria under long-term starvation has gained importance in recent years because of its ability to uncover adaptive strategies to overcome prolonged nutrient limitation- a condition thought to be encountered often by natural microbial isolates. In this evolutionary paradigm, bacteria are maintained in an energy-restricted environment in the growth … Show more

“…Thus, it was reasonable that cell 10.3389/fmicb.2022.983545 growth in biofilm became slower. Slow-growing cells are less susceptible to stressors and have been demonstrated to increase cell tolerance (Nandy, 2021). More importantly, slow growth typically correlated with slower death (Patra and Klumpp, 2013;Biselli et al, 2020).…”
