Adaptive laboratory evolution has proven highly effective for obtaining microorganisms with enhanced capabilities. Yet, this method is inherently restricted to the traits that are positively linked to cell fitness, such as nutrient utilization. Here, we introduce coevolution of obligatory mutuali...

Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a water-use efficient adaptation of photosynthesis that has evolved independently many times in diverse lineages of flowering plants. We hypothesize that convergent evolution of protein sequence and temporal gene expression underpins the independent emergences o...

Limited resource availability in the gut promotes competitive interactions between bacteria, which drive adaptive within-host evolution. While the role of bacterial adaptive evolution of bacterial communities has been extensively studied, its functional implications for host physiology remain unk...

ORGANISM(S): Drosophila melanogaster 

Isobutanol production has been demonstrated in E. coli and Z. mobilis using heterologous pathways, with titers reaching up to 60% of the theoretical yield under optimized conditions. However, these results often depend on impractical setups, such as continuous product extraction, oxygenation, or ...

225 years ago, Alexander von Humboldt observed the first crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) tree, Clusia rosea (Clusiaceae). Since then, the photosynthetic and ecophysiological plasticity of Clusia

species have captivated the minds of plant scientists worldwide. CAM is a physiological adapt...

ORGANISM(S): Escherichia coli 
Marine picocyanobacteria Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus, the most abundant photosynthetic cells in the oceans, are generally thought to have a primarily single-celled and free-living lifestyle. However, while studying the ability of picocyanobacteria to supplement photosynthetic car...

The section Oleifera (Theaceae) has attracted attention for the high levels of unsaturated fatty acids found in its seeds. Here, we report the chromosome-scale genome of the sect. Oleifera using diploid wild Camellia lanceoleosa with a final size of 3.00 Gb and an N50 s...

Lipids are critical for the structure, signaling, and metabolism of the central nervous system (CNS), yet their roles during human brain development remain underexplored due to limited tissue availability. X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD), a peroxisomal disorder caused by ABCD1 mutat...
