Synthetic symbiosis between a cyanobacterium and a ciliate toward novel chloroplast-like endosymbiosis

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Yuki Azuma from the InstitutOsaka University Osaka, u20110871, Japan have published the research: Synthetic symbiosis between a cyanobacterium and a ciliate toward novel chloroplast-like endosymbiosis, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
• what: The model shows that there is no stable equilibrium point or orbit in this primitive symbiotic system, where the two species co-exist unless the system is externally controlled, such as by serial transfers.
• how: For cyanobacterial cell population changes the authors considered the effects of ciliate predation in addition to independent growth. As described above the authors . . .
