Monarchical approbation of statutes of admission of noble consortia had not been customary.
Professional organisations, consortia, journals, and discussion boards should take up this topic in earnest.
Canadian regulations require characterisation and monitoring of all consortia used for bioaugmentation in environmental remediation.
European consortia have been supported in technical development and investigations.
Individual bacterial cells have limited access to the nutrient supply and limited space for growth inside the large cell consortia.
The consortia living in the microbial mats would have included heterotrophic as well as chemolithotrophic organisms.
As with most natural bacterial populations, soil consortia are attached to surfaces where they grow as highly structured communities in biofilms.
Early efforts described development of unrestricted monospecies consortia, often considering diffusion and reaction of a single solute species.
