[Ab] Resumo: | Adaptive diversification is an essential evolutionary process, one that produces phenotypic innovations including the colonization of available ecological niches. Bacteria can diverge in sympatry when ecological opportunities allow, but the underlying genetic mechanisms are often unknown. Perhaps, the longest-lasting adaptive diversification seen in the laboratory occurred during the long-term evolution experiment, in which 12 populations of Escherichia coli have been evolving independently for more than 65,000 generations from a common ancestor. In one population, two lineages, S and L, emerged at ~6500 generations and have dynamically coexisted ever since by negative frequency-dependent interactions mediated, in part, by acetate secretion by L. Mutations in spoT, arcA, and gntR promoted the emergence of the S lineage, although they reproduced only partially its phenotypic traits. Here, we characterize the evolved mechanism of acetate consumption by the S lineage that enabled invasion and coexistence with the L lineage. We identified an additional mutation in acs that, together with the arcA mutation, drove an early restructuring of the transcriptional control of central metabolism in S, leading to improved acetate consumption. Pervasive epistatic interactions within the S genome contributed to the exploitation of this new ecological opportunity. The emergence and maintenance of this long-term polymorphism is a complex multi-step process. |
