Abstract:S6.3 Fungal adaptation and evolution, September 22, 2022, 4:45 PM - 6:15 PM
A total of 12 replicate populations initiated with a laboratory strain of the ascomycete fungus Aspergillus nidulans evolved on synthetic minimal glucose agar medium for 1 year, using weekly transfers of 1% of the produced asexual spores to fresh medium. This Aspergillus short-term evolution experiment (ASEX) was designed to understand how filamentous fungi adapt to growth on limited carbon in a spatially structured e… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
