Cobamide-based interactions between soil bacteria can be predicted based on monoculture growth

Zoila I. Alvarez-Aponte, Hazel I. Anagu, Kenny C. Mok, Sandy T. Nguyen, Valentine V. Trotter, Michiko E. Taga

The paper shows that cobamide concentrations predict microbial dominance in co-cultures, suggesting niche differentiation despite functional redundancy.
