This thesis focuses on experiments in bacterial evolution, with the aim to explore experimentally how horizontal transfer of DNA within a bacterial population, may or may not modify the evolution of this population. The method used to allow exchanges of DNA within the population, is based on the property of natural transformation of the bacterium Acinetobacter baylyi. A pilot experiment without genome shuffling was made over 3000 generations, and we analyzed by sequencing the mutations and the diversity that emerged during this experiment.There is a structure in multiple actively competing subpopulations that appears consistent with a system of clonal interference. An experimental evolution with exchange of DNA and a control experiment with...
