However, the complexity of natural communities makes this a daunting challenge. For this reason, synthetic multi-species consortia represent promising tools for connecting molecular processes to ecological dynamics [2]. A particularly important type of multi-species interaction is metabolic interdependency or cross-feeding. Acquiring metabolites from the excretions of other species is thought to be prevalent in nature, and it has been suggested as one of the reasons that so few microbes can be isolated in laboratory monocultures [2, 9].
