This project investigates horizontal gene transfer in bacteria, focusing on how genetic material is exchanged and its impact on bacterial evolution. It develops new genetic technologies to measure the fitness effects of different types of gene transfers, aiming to understand the selective forces that influence their su…
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) –the movement of genetic material between individuals– is a significant force fueling bacterial evolution.
Through HGT, bacteria acquire new traits, develop new metabolic capabilities and learn to withstand harsh environmental conditions.
However, in some cases, HGT brings genetic information that is not advantageous to its host.
Despite its crucial relevance for bacterial ecology and evolution, understanding the selective forces that drive the success (or failure)…
