Chromosomal barcoding as a tool for multiplexed phenotypic characterization of laboratory evolved lineages

Abstract Adaptive laboratory evolution is an important tool to evolve organisms to increased tolerance towards different physical and chemical stress. It is applied to study the evolution of antibiotic resistance as well as genetic mechanisms underlying improvements in production strains. Adaptive e...
