Characteristics of the metabolic models used in the study before and after the application of the community gap-filling method.

The algorithm simulated the aerobic growth of a community of an E. coli glucose utilizer and an E. coli acetate utilizer on glucose, the anaerobic growth of a community of the strains B. adolescentis ATCC 15703 and F. prausnitzii A2–165 on glucose, and the anaerobic growth of a community of the species Dehalobacter sp. CF and Bacteroidales sp. CF50 on media with lactate and chloroform.
