From: Reducing the ionizing radiation background does not significantly affect the evolution of Escherichia coli populations over 500 generations

Figure 3

Relative fitness values from direct competitions between LSM and LPC populations evolved for 500 generations. Evolved populations from LSM were competed against evolved populations from LPC but with the opposite arabinose marker. All competitions were done in the LPC environment. Markers show the mean and \(1\sigma \) errors for each set of lineages competed. Overall, the relative fitness of the lineages grown in the LSM compared to the LPC is 1.01 ± 0.05.
