Evolutionary biology was previously considered a historical science with predictions about evolutionary trajectories believed to be near impossible. The development of high …
Growth rate is a key prokaryotic trait that allows estimating fitness and understanding cell metabolism. While in some clades it has been well studied in model organisms, there is little …
The growth rate of a microorganism is a simple yet profound way to quantify its impact on the world. Microbial fitness in the environment depends on the ability to reproduce quickly when …
