Synthetic ecology: A model system for cooperation [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007 Synthetic biology offers the promise of a better understanding of biological systems through constructing them. Unlike naturally occurring biological systems, which are generally complicated by multiple variables and difficult to isolate components, synthetic systems can be simplified to allow for experiments that would be too difficult to interpret if

Homeorhesis and ecological succession quantified in synthetic microbial ecosystems [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2019 The dynamics of ecological change following a major perturbation, known as succession, are influenced by random processes. Direct quantitation of the degree of contingency in succession requires chronological study of replicate ecosystems. We previously found that population dynamics in carefully controlled, replicated synthetic microbial ecosystems ...

Use of synthetic communities to study microbial ecology of the gut
Microbiome Research Reports, 2022 The application of in vitro synthetic microbial communities is an excellent approach to model the ecological interactions between microbes in the human gastrointestinal tract. Although DNA-based studies have provided a wealth of information, they do not consider the ecological properties of the human gut microbiota.
