Abstract

Escherichia coli strains ECOR2, ECOR3 and K-12 are very closely related in genotype as indicated by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis. We show that they have very different rfb regions indicating that recombination has occurred in this region, and we suggest that it may be associated with niche adaptation.
