On this page, heatmaps are displayed to
show the concentrations of metabolites on the grid. Also information regarding to
the lineage, metabolic type, production, death rate, crossfeeding and cell-size are
displayed.
Hover over the images to show a zoombox. Press 't' to hide/show the zoombox.
About the crossfeeding patterns:
Exploitiving: when an individual imports and consumes a molecule, exported by another cell in the same neighborhood (strict = the cell itself does not export the molecule class)
Providing: when an individual produces and exports a molecule class, imported by another cell in the same neighborhood. (strict = the cell itself does not consume the molecule class)
Crossfeeding neighborhoods: location with one or more exploiting-providing interaction(s)
Exploitive crossfeeding location with one or more exploiting-providing interaction(s), where exploiting is strict.
Strict crossfeeding location with one or more exploiting-providing interaction(s), where both exploiting and providing is strict.
Higher rates of crossfeeding happen when more than one molecule falls into the catagories above.
