Emergence of alternative stable states in microbial communities undergoing horizontal gene transfer

2024-06-22

Abstract excerpt

Microbial communities living in the same environment often display alternative stable states, each characterized by a unique composition of species. Understanding the origin and determinants of microbiome multistability has broad implications in environments, human health and microbiome engineering. However, despite its conceptual importance, how multistability emerges in complex communities remains largely unknow...
