Schematic diagram of the ethanol-induced adaptive laboratory evolution. Gradually increasing (from 2 to 12% or from 4 to 12%) and specific concentrations (2%, 4%, 8%, and 10%) of ethanol were selected as the driving forces for the ALE. After screening and analytical certification, the excellent strain will be turned into another round of evolution. The mutations of excellent strain were uncovered through whole-genome resequencing and then parental strain was reverse engineered to gain a rationally designed strain
