Cooperation and competition shape ecological resistance during periodic spatial disturbance of engineered bacteria
Abstract Cooperation is fundamental to the survival of many bacterial species. Previous studies have shown that spatial structure can both promote and suppress cooperation. Most environments where bacteria are found are periodically disturbed, which can affect the spatial structure of the population...
