Asynchronous abundance fluctuations can drive giant genotype frequency fluctuations

J. A. Ascensao, K. Lok, O. Hallatschek

The paper shows that asynchronous abundance fluctuations can cause large genotype frequency changes in microbial populations, distinct from genetic drift.

Rediversification Following Ecotype Isolation Reveals Hidden Adaptive Potential

J. A. Ascensao, J. Denk, K. Lok, Q. Yu, K. M. Wetmore, O. Hallatschek

The paper shows that two-ecotype microbial communities can rediversify into two ecotypes after isolation, with similar patterns despite evolutionary time, but with differences in growth traits and transcriptional states.
