Diverse bacteria exhibit superadditive growth on mixed classes of carbon sources

Elena K Perry, Ying Wang, Valentine V Trotter, Yan Chen, Markus de Raad, Suzanne M Kosina, Rowan Nelson, Christopher J Petzold, Daniel Segrè, Adam P Arkin, Adam M Deutschbauer, Trent R Northen

The paper shows that some bacteria grow better on mixed carbon sources than on individual ones, and links this to their genetic makeup and metabolic preferences.
