Tracking defined microbial communities by multicolor flow cytometry reveals tradeoffs between productivity and diversity

Cross feeding between microbes is ubiquitous, but its impact on the diversity and productivity of microbial communities is incompletely understood. A reductionist approach using simple microbial communities has the potential to detect cross feeding interactions and their impact on ecosystem properti...
