Chaos in synthetic microbial communities
Fig 3
Topologies and properties associated with chaotic behaviour.
A Shows the models with highest posterior probability when subsetted for number of parts expressed, in order of increasing complexity (4, 5 and 6 expressed parts). The bar chart shows the mean model posterior probability across three experiments, the error bars indicate the standard deviation. B Comparison between average posterior probabilities with different properties. In order from left to right, the barcharts compare: The number of QS systems used, the modes by which QS regulates bacteriocin expression (positive, negative or both), the number of bacteriocins used, and systems containing self-limiting (SL), other-limiting (OL) or SL and OL interactions.
