Synthetic microbial consortia could efficiently produce biofuels from lignocellulose through labor division between different species. However, the incompatible growth conditions between lignocellulose degraders and biofuel producers might limit the overall conversion efficiency. We discuss recent examples of biofuel production using microbial consortia and suggest steps toward realistic implementation.
人工合成微生物群落可以通过不同物种之间的分工,有效地从木质纤维素生产生物燃料。然而,木质纤维素降解菌和生物燃料生产者之间不兼容的生长条件可能会限制整体转化效率。我们讨论了使用微生物群落生产生物燃料的最新实例,并提出了实现这一目标的步骤。
