Publication moved to the United Kingdom in 1998, the journal being taken over by the Society for General Microbiology, in conjunction with Cambridge University Press. [6] The title was changed to International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology in 2000, to reflect the broadened focus of the journal. A major redesign brought the ...
The quasispecies model is a description of the process of the Darwinian evolution of certain self-replicating entities within the framework of physical chemistry.A quasispecies is a large group or "cloud" of related genotypes that exist in an environment of high mutation rate (at stationary state [1]), where a large fraction of offspring are expected to contain one or more mutations relative ...
An early Code for the nomenclature of bacteria was approved at the 4th International Congress for Microbiology in 1947, but was later discarded. The latest version to be printed in book form is the 1990 Revision, [ 3 ] but the book does not represent the current rules.
The evolution of bacteria has progressed over billions of years since the Precambrian time with their first major divergence from the archaeal/eukaryotic lineage roughly 3.2-3.5 billion years ago. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] This was discovered through gene sequencing of bacterial nucleoids to reconstruct their phylogeny .
Terrabacteria is a taxon containing approximately two-thirds of prokaryote species, including those in the gram positive phyla (Actinomycetota and Bacillota) as well as the phyla "Cyanobacteria", Chloroflexota, and Deinococcota.
DPANN is a superphylum of Archaea first proposed in 2013. [1] Many members show novel signs of horizontal gene transfer from other domains of life. [1] They are known as nanoarchaea or ultra-small archaea due to their smaller size (nanometric) compared to other archaea.
The 12 E. coli LTEE populations on June 25, 2008. [1]The E. coli long-term evolution experiment (LTEE) is an ongoing study in experimental evolution begun by Richard Lenski at the University of California, Irvine, carried on by Lenski and colleagues at Michigan State University, [2] and currently overseen by Jeffrey Barrick at the University of Texas at Austin.
