Thirteen independent cocultures were subjected to laboratory evolution with and without shaking as described before [5]. DNA samples were collected across generations, end-point-dilutions (EPDs), clonal isolates, and single cells to identify genomic alterations. In addition, clonal isolates were paired in varied combinations in order to determine growth rate and yield for cocultures. Number of samples sequenced are indicated at the bottom.
