Kümmerli, Rolf; Frank, Steven A (2023). Evolutionary explanations for heterogeneous behavior in clonal bacterial populations. Trends in Microbiology, 31(7):665-667.
Cellular heterogeneity in clonal bacterial populations is wide-spread. Division of labor and bet hedging are common adaptive explanations for the function of such heterogeneity. We suggest group-level phenotypes via shareable molecules and variation in cellular vigor as two alternative evolutionary explanations for bacterial cellular heterogeneity.
