Description preview
PROJECT SUMMARY
In nature and human microbiomes, microbes regularly face challenges due to fluctuations in the availability of
resources and nutrients - a lifestyle termed feast/famine. Previous studies investigating microbial adaptation to
feast/famine have focused on the specific adaptations that allow microbes to survive extreme starvation,…
