A spore quality–quantity tradeoff favors diverse sporulation strategies in Bacillus subtilis

Quality–quantity tradeoffs govern the production of propagules across taxa and can explain variability in life-history traits in higher organisms. A quality–quantity tradeoff was recently discovered in spore forming bacteria, but whether it impacts fitness is unclear. Here we show both theoretically...
