An Escherichia coli Strain with All Chromosomal rRNA Operons Inactivated: Complete Exchange of rRNA Genes between Bacteria

Current global phylogenies are built predominantly on rRNA sequences. However, an experimental system for studying the evolution of rRNA is not readily available, mainly because the rRNA genes are highly repeated in most experimental organisms. We have constructed an Escherichia coli strain in which...
