Although bacteria have a seemingly limitless capacity to alter their genes by swapping bits of DNA between strains, this mechanism doesn't seem enough to account for the swift pace of change and the high variability of E. coli and other strains.Thomas Cebula of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) wondered if this rapid evolution is being driven by microbes capable of much faster - than - normal variation.
