Genomic population structure associated with repeated escape of Salmonella enterica ATCC14028s from the laboratory into nature.

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium strain ATCC14028s is commercially available from multiple national type culture collections, and has been widely used since 1960 for quality control of growth media and experiments on fitness ("laboratory evolution"). ATCC14028s has been implicated i...
