An engineered consortia with three different soil bacterial populations each contributing with essential resources to the system. Each of the populations produces different resources (N, C, and antibiotic degradation enzymes) that are necessary and not produced by the others. All populations are kept in independent culture wells, imposing structure with constant connectivity through resources flow (example from Kim et al., 2008).
