The Cost of Metabolic Interactions in Symbioses between Insects and Bacteria with Reduced Genomes
Current understanding of many animal-microbial symbioses involving unculturable bacterial symbionts with much-reduced genomes derives almost entirely from nonquantitative inferences from genome data. To overcome this limitation, we reconstructed multipartner metabolic models that quantify both the m...
