Predation strategies of the bacterium <i>Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus</i> result in overexploitation and bottlenecks

2019-04-29

Abstract excerpt

With increasing antimicrobial resistance, alternatives for treating infections or removing resistant bacteria are urgently needed, such as the bacterial predator Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus or bacteriophage. Therefore, we need to better understand microbial predator-prey dynamics. We developed mass-action mathematical models of predation for chemostats, which capture the low substrate concentration and slow growth...
