Dizzy, see the books published by the American Society for Microbiology,
_Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium, cellular and molecular 
biology_.  It's a two volume set, and the second volume has the papers
on E. coli and S. typhimurium evolution.  I don't have them here but the
answer is there, possibly in the article by Riley and Stevens.
