Theoretical work from two former PhD students in the lab, Meike Wortel and Evert Bosdriesz is now published in Nature Scientific Reports (link to paper). It provides a theory that links molecular networks -using metabolic control analysis- and selection pressure in the chemostat. It is also shown that co-existence of fermenters and respirers can occur in population dynamical simulations of chemostat evolution, when product inhibition is taken into account.
