Resource distribution unifies optimal offspring size and bacterial aging

|
By Taom Sakal, Stephen R. Proulx
| BioRxiv
Abstract Models of optimal offspring size and bacterial aging share the same underlying mathematical problem: how should a parent optimally distribute limited resources among its offspring? Optimal offspring size theory has long explored the trade-off between offspring number and size in higher organisms. Meanwhile, the emerging field of bacterial aging examines whether and under what conditions cells evolve unequal sharing of old cellular components.

Selection on sporulation strategies in a metapopulation can lead to coexistence

|
By Taom Sakal, Kelly M Thomasson
| BioRxiv
Abstract In constant environments the coexistence of similar species or genotypes is generally limited. In a metapopulation context, however, types that utilize the same resource but are distributed along a competition-coexistence trade-off, can coexist. Much thought in this area focuses on a generic trade-off between within-deme competitive ability and between-deme dispersal ability.
