A new study published in PLOS Genetics has identified an extreme mutational hotspot within the genome of Pseudomonas fluorescens, providing unprecedented insight into the relationship between gene regulation and mutation rates. The findings could have broad implications for understanding bacterial evolution, adaptation, and antibiotic resistance.
