Developing mathematical models to accurately predict microbial growth dynamics remains a key challenge in ecology, evolution, biotechnology, and public health. To reproduce grow, microbes need take up essential nutrients from the environment, classically assume that nutrient uptake rate is saturating function of concentration. In nature, experience different levels availability at all environmental scales, yet parameters shaping are commonly estimated for single initial This hampers...
Abstract Viruses that infect bacteria, known as bacteriophages or phages, are the most prevalent entities on Earth. Their genetic diversity in nature is well documented, and members of divergent lineages can be found sharing same ecological niche. This viral influenced by a number factors, including productivity, spatial structuring environment, host-range trade-offs. Rapid evolution also to promote buffering systems from extinction. There is, however, little about impact coevolution...
