Expanding the Diet for DIET: Electron Donors Supporting Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer (DIET) in Defined Co-Cultures

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) has been recognized as an alternative to interspecies H2 transfer as a mechanism for syntrophic growth, but previous studies on DIET with defined co-cultures have only documented DIET with ethanol as the ...

Geobacter Strains Expressing Poorly Conductive Pili Reveal Constraints on Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer Mechanisms

open access: yesmBio, 2018
Cytochrome-to-cytochrome electron transfer and electron transfer along conduits of multiple extracellular magnetite grains are often proposed as strategies for direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) that do not require electrically conductive pili (

Mechanism for microbial population collapse in a fluctuating resource environment

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2017
Managing trade‐offs through gene regulation is believed to confer resilience to a microbial community in a fluctuating resource environment. To investigate this hypothesis, we imposed a fluctuating environment that required the sulfate‐reducer ...

Commensalism and syntrophy in the chemostat: a unifying graphical approach

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics
<abstract><p>The aim of this paper is to show that Tilman's graphical method for the study of competition between two species for two resources can be advantageously used for the study of commensalism or syntrophy models, where a first species produces the substrate necessary for the growth of the second species. The growth functions of the

Lithosyntrophy: Obligate syntrophy in a phosphite-oxidizing, methanogenic culture

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
The anaerobic conversion of organic matter to methane and carbon dioxide typically relies on obligate syntrophic interactions between bacteria and methanogenic archaea, where interspecies hydrogen (H 2 ) transfer enables thermodynamically constrained reactions to proceed near equilibrium. Syntrophs
