| Study Title | Resource competition predicts assembly of in vitro gut bacterial communities- HILIC |
| Study Summary | Microbiota dynamics arise from a plethora of interspecies interactions, including resource competition, cross-feeding, and pH modulation. The individual contributions of these mechanisms are challenging to untangle, especially in natural or complex laboratory environments where the landscape of resource competition is unclear. Here, we developed a framework to estimate the extent of multi-species niche overlaps by combining metabolomics data of individual species, growth measurements in pairwise spent media, and mathematical models. When applied to an in vitro model system of human gut commensals in complex media, our framework revealed that a simple model of resource competition described most pairwise interactions. By grouping metabolomic features depleted by the same set of species, we constructed a coarse-grained consumer-resource model that predicted assembly compositions to reasonable accuracy. Moreover, deviations from model predictions enabled us to identify and incorporate into the model additional interactions, including pH-mediated effects and cross-feeding, which improved model performance. In sum, our work provides an experimental and theoretical framework to dissect microbial interactions in complex in vitro environments. |

Collection:
| Collection ID: | CO002934 |
| Collection Summary: | Isolates were obtained via plating of in vitro communities –, derived from culturing fecal samples from humanized mice –, on agar plates made with various complex media and frozen as glycerol stocks, as previously described (Cell Host & Microbe (2022). https://doi.org/https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chom.2021.12.008, https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.01.13.523996v1) Frozen stocks were streaked onto BHI-blood agar plates (5% defibrinated horse blood in 1.5% w/v agar). Resulting colonies were inoculated into 3 mL of Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) (BD #2237500) or modified Gifu Anaerobic Medium (mGAM) (HyServe #05433) in test tubes. All culturing was performed at 37 °C without shaking in an anaerobic chamber (Coy). To minimize potential physiological changes from freeze-thaw cycles and changes in growth medium, cultures were diluted 1:200 every 48 h for 3 passages before growth or metabolomics measurements. After the first passage, subsequent passages were performed in 96-well polystyrene plates (Greiner Bio-One #655161) filled with 200 μL of growth medium. |
