Synthetic periphyton as a model system to understand species dynamics in complex microbial freshwater communities
Abstract Phototrophic biofilms, also known as periphyton, are microbial freshwater communities that drive crucial ecological processes in streams and lakes. Gaining a deep mechanistic understanding of the biological processes occurring in natural periphyton remains challenging due to the high comple...
