Dynamics of Genome Rearrangement in Bacterial Populations
Genome structure variation has profound impacts on phenotype in organisms ranging from microbes to humans, yet little is known about how natural selection acts on genome arrangement. Pathogenic bacteria such as Yersinia pestis, which causes bubonic and pneumonic plague, often exhibit a high degree of genomic rearrangement. The recent availability of several Yersinia genomes offers an unpreceden...
متن کاملOscillatory dynamics in a bacterial cross-protection mutualism.
Cooperation between microbes can enable microbial communities to survive in harsh environments. Enzymatic deactivation of antibiotics, a common mechanism of antibiotic resistance in bacteria, is a cooperative behavior that can allow resistant cells to protect sensitive cells from antibiotics. Understanding how bacterial populations survive antibiotic exposure is important both clinically and ec...
متن کاملDensity-Dependent Recycling Promotes the Long-Term Survival of Bacterial Populations during Periods of Starvation
The amount of natural resources in the Earth's environment is in flux, which can trigger catastrophic collapses of ecosystems. How populations survive under nutrient-poor conditions is a central question in ecology. Curiously, some bacteria persist for a long time in nutrient-poor environments. Although this survival may be accomplished through cell death and the recycling of dead cells, the im...
متن کاملOptimal migration promotes the outbreak of cooperation in heterogeneous populations
We consider a population of agents that are heterogeneous with respect to (i) their strategy when interacting ng times with other agents in an iterated prisoners dilemma game, (ii) their spatial location on K different islands. After each generation, agents adopt strategies proportional to their average payoff received. Assuming a mix of two cooperating and two defecting strategies, we first in...
متن کاملOscillatory Survival Probability: Analytical, Numerical Study for oscillatory narrow escape and applications to neural network dynamics
We study the escape of Brownian motion from the domain of attraction Ω of a stable focus with a strong drift. The boundary ∂Ω of Ω is an unstable limit cycle of the drift and the focus is very close to the limit cycle. We find a new phenomenon of oscillatory decay of the peaks of the survival probability of the Brownian motion in Ω. We compute explicitly the complex-valued second eigenvalue λ2(...
