Figure 2. Modeling microbial communities with ODE systems.

Figure 2.

Microbial growth over time follows the logistic rule defined by Verhulst in 1838. Predator–prey systems show an oscillatory dynamic. gLV models are used today in combination with time series of metagenomics data. Stein et al. [16] proposed an extension of the gLV model to include susceptibility to an external time-dependent perturbation.
