Problem
"The Uncultured Bacteria" by Kim Lewis.
i. What basis does Professor Lewis argue that the "Great Plate Anomaly" will not be solved by simply "tinkering" with laboratory growth conditions until suitable conditions are identified?
ii. Lewis has proposed that the bacteria which we deem "unculturable" may be employing a strategy in which they go dormant and await a return to their natural environment. How does Lewis argue that such dormancy benefits the microbe?
