Microbial population dynamics and evolutionary outcomes under ...

We predict that populations can persist for hundreds to thousands of years, placing upper bounds on microbial lifespans.

Microorganisms commonly inhabit energy-limited ecosystems where cellular maintenance and reproduction is highly constrained.

Microbial population dynamics and evolutionary outcomes under ...

Critically, we found that as death rates declined over time, lifespan was extended through the scavenging of dead cells. Although growth and ...
