Fig. 7From: Trusting the hand that feeds: microbes evolve to anticipate a serial transfer protocol as individuals or collectivesIndividual and collective solutions have similar macro-level observables The daily yield for all the evolved populations is shown, for groups of individual / collective solutions with and without regulated gene expression. Colours and symbols are identical to previous figures (grey=no coexistence, purple=coexistence). Only the non-regulating, individual lineages perform significantly worse than any of the other groups (performing all 6 Wilcoxon rank-sum tests with α 0.05)Back to article page
