Majority sensing in synthetic microbial consortia [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2020 AbstractAs synthetic biocircuits become more complex, distributing computations within multi-strain microbial consortia becomes increasingly beneficial. However, designing distributed circuits that respond predictably to variation in consortium composition remains a challenge.

Engineering Microbial Consortia towards Bioremediation [PDF]
Water, 2021 Bioremediation is a sustainable remediation technology as it utilizes microorganisms to convert hazardous compounds into their less toxic or non-toxic constituent elements. This technology has achieved some success in the past decades; however, factors involving microbial consortia, such as microbial assembly, functional interactions, and the role of ...

Engineering consortia by polymeric microbial swarmbots
Nature Communications, 2022 AbstractSynthetic microbial consortia represent a new frontier for synthetic biology given that they can solve more complex problems than monocultures. However, most attempts to co-cultivate these artificial communities fail because of the winner-takes-all in nutrients competition.

Metabolically cohesive microbial consortia and ecosystem functioning [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2020 Recent theory and experiments have reported a reproducible tendency for the coexistence of microbial species under controlled environmental conditions. This observation has been explained in the context of competition for resources and metabolic complementarity given that, in microbial communities (MCs), many excreted by-products of metabolism may also
