Eco-evolutionary dynamics of nested Darwinian populations and the emergence of community-level heredity

Eco-evolutionary dynamics of nested Darwinian populations and the emergence of community-level heredity

Interactions among microbial cells can generate new chemistries and functions, but exploitation requires establishment of communities that reliably recapitulate community-level phenotypes. Using mechanistic mathematical models, we show how simple manipulations to population structure can exogenously...
