Laboratory strains of Escherichia coli K-12: not such perfect role models after all (2022)
Preprint / Working Paper
Browning, D. F., Hobman, J. L., & Busby, S. J. Laboratory strains of Escherichia coli K-12: not such perfect role models after all

Escherichia coli K-12 was originally isolated 100 years ago and since then, it has become an invaluable model organism and a cornerstone of molecular biology research. However, despite its apparent pedigree, since its initial isolation, E. coli K-12... Read More about Laboratory strains of Escherichia coli K-12: not such perfect role models after all.
