  • Publication number: 20200131538
    Abstract: The invention provides processes for identifying and tracking genomic duplications that can occur during classical strain development or during the metabolic evolution of microbial strains originally constructed for the production of a biochemical through specific genetic manipulations, processes that stabilize the copy number of desirable genomic duplications using appropriate selectable markers, and non-naturally occurring microorganisms with stabilized copy numbers of a functional DNA sequence.
