Furthermore, by incorporating heterotrophs engineered for the production of an enzyme (alpha-amylase; B. subtilis) or a target metabolite (PHB; E. coli), co-cultures can be re-programed for photobiological production of different targets. We propose that the unusual flexibility of this consortia...
denoted by a green box. Average OD600is shown as a metric of growth for ≥ 6 biological replicates. OD600was correlated to viable colony forming units (CFU) in Additional file1: Figure S3. No contaminants/heterotrophic colonies grew from axenic cyanobacteria controls Full size image B. subt...
