Emergence of Metabolite Provisioning as a By-Product of Evolved Biological Functions
Microbes commonly use metabolites produced by other organisms to compete effectively with others in their environment. As a result, microbial communities are composed of networks of metabolically interdependent organisms. How these networks evolve and shape population diversity, stability, and commu...
