Bistability in a system of two species interacting through mutualism as well as competition: Chemostat vs. Lotka-Volterra equations.

We theoretically study the dynamics of two interacting microbial species in the chemostat. These species are competitors for a common resource, as well as mutualists due to cross-feeding. In line with previous studies (Assaneo, et al., 2013; Holland, et al., 2010; Iwata, et al., 2011), we demonstrat...
