Original Abstract

Evolutionary engineering is a valuable tool for improving properties of microorganisms on phenotype level without a need of a deeper knowledge of genetic characteristics. It is advisable to study evolutionary engineering on bacteria, because in a relatively short time we can see changes in the phenotype. The criterion chosen in this work to evaluate the success of an adaptation to a specific stress, was amount of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) generated by wild and adapted strains. It was concluded that adapted strain to copper cations produced more PHAs than wild strain.

Keywords

Evolutionary engineering, polyhydroxyalkanoates, selective pressure, adaptation, bacteria.
