Toward an Integrated Physiological Theory of Microbial Growth: From Subcellular Variables to Population Dynamics by Atul Narang, Sergei S. Pilyugin

“…We presentthese physiological models in the order of increasing complexity.Thus, we begin with models of single-species growth in environmentscontaining a single growth-limiting substrate, then advance to modelsof single-species growth in mixed-substrate media, and conclude withmodels of multiple-species growth in mixed-substrate environments.Throughout the paper, we discuss both the analytical and simulationtechniques to illustrate how these models capture and explain variousexperimental phenomena. …”
