Eco-evolutionary modelling of microbial syntrophy indicates the robustness of cross-feeding over cross-facilitation
Abstract Syntrophic cooperation among prokaryotes is ubiquitous and diverse. It relies on unilateral or mutual aid that may be both catalytic and metabolic in nature. Hypotheses of eukaryotic origins claim that mitochondrial endosymbiosis emerged from mutually beneficial syntrophy of archaeal and ba...
