Bet-hedging during bacterial diauxic shift
Open accessAbstract
Significance: More than 70 years ago, Monod described the phenomenon of diauxic growth of bacteria, the observation that in the presence of two alternative sugars, cells first use one of them and then, after a short lag phase, switch to the other. Until now it had been assumed that all cells in a population engage in the outgrowth on the second sugar after major metabolic adaptation of enzymatic composition has occurred, which takes time (hence the lag phase in growth). Here, we show that actually only a subpopulation is fit enough to partake in the second growth phase and present an evolutionary model, suggesting that this phenomenon might entail a bet-hedging strategy that helps bacteria adapt to the unexpectedly changing environment.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
