elongatus continuously generate sucrose at up to 36 mg sucrose L−1 hr−1, a rate predicted to substantially exceed that of sugarcane, if successfully cultivated to scale [12]. This strain therefore demonstrates great promise as the basis for flexible photoproduction of distinct target compounds...
coliandB. subtilisstrains, respectively. Finally, we examine our results for general design principles for improvement of engineered cyanobacteria/heterotroph consortia, and discuss potential of this platform for the “bottom-up” assessment of naturally-occurring microbial communities. Results Cyanobacteria ...
