Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Despite the importance of contingent effects on the evolutionary process of living systems, theoretical considerations and experimental validations have not been fully investigated yet. In this research, we aimed to investigate contingent effects by developing an artificial experimental evolution system of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae) cocultured with Escherichia coli (E. coli). De novo mutations that might occur during replications of S Cerevisiae and E. coli are identified by genomic sequences. Gene expression profiles are measured by transcriptomics. These omics datasets are then integrated into a multi-scale mathematical model representing intracellular-molecular and intercellular population dynamics. Our theoretical approach combined with validation by experimental evolution systems would provide a key to understand the role of emerging and contingent property on evolutionary processes.
