Environmental variability and modularity of bacterial metabolic networks
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Biological systems are often modular: they can be decomposed into nearly-independent structural units that perform specific functions. The evolutionary origin of modularity is a subject of much current interest. Recent theory suggest...
