This project investigates the genetic diversity and social behaviors of myxobacteria, focusing on Myxococcus xanthus. By analyzing natural isolates, it aims to link genetic variations to phenotypic traits, enhancing understanding of microbial evolution and cooperation.
Our understanding of microbial genetic diversity in nature and how it relates to phenotypic divergence is extremely limited, including for social traits like those exhibited by myxobacteria.
Relying on next-generation sequencing, the project proposed here seeks to quantify the roles that the forces of evolution play in shaping genomic and social divergence in natural populations of the model cooperative myxobacterium, Myxoccocus xanthus.
First, I will use a global and spatially hierarchical coll…
