Microbial Gladiators: Unraveling the dynamics of carbon substrate competition among heterotrophic microbes
S. M. McNichol, F. Sanchez-Quete, S. Loeb…·N. Mahmoudi
This study examines how carbon substrate complexity affects competition and growth dynamics between two marine heterotrophic microbes, showing that complex substrates promote coexistence and efficient organic matter remineralization.
