Abstract: The paper investigates a dynamical model of plasmid-bearing, plasmid-free competition in the chemostat with general specific growth rates. Based on a feedback control, global stabilization of the dynamics towards a practically important coexistence equilibrium point is achieved. The latter result is used to optimize the productivity of the chemostat. Results from computer simulation are reported to illustrate the theoretical studies.
