Is it selfish to be filamentous in biofilms? Individual-based modeling links microbial growth strategies with morphology using the new and modular iDynoMiCS 2.0

B. J. R. Cockx, T. Foster, R. J. Clegg, K. Alden, S. Arya, D. J. Stekel, B. F. Smets, J.-U. Kreft

The paper introduces iDynoMiCS 2.0, an individual-based modeling platform for microbial communities, showing that filamentous bacteria outcompete spherical bacteria regardless of growth strategy.

Predation strategies of the bacterium Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus result in overexploitation and bottlenecks

K. Summers, J.-U. Kreft

This paper uses mathematical models to study Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus predation dynamics, finding that optimal predation requires specific conditions and that overexploitation can lead to extinction.

Damage repair versus aging in biofilms

R. J. Wright, R. J. Clegg, T. L. Coker, J.-U. Kreft

This study compares damage repair and aging in biofilms using an individual-based model, finding that aging is not beneficial and only useful under specific conditions.

Towards a general model for predicting minimal metal concentrations co-selecting for antibiotic resistance plasmids

S. Arya, A. Williams, S. Vazquez Reina, C. W. Knapp, J.-U. Kreft, J. L. Hobman, D. J. Stekel

The paper develops a mathematical model to predict minimal metal concentrations that co-select for antibiotic resistance plasmids, applying it to copper, zinc, mercury, lead, and silver.
