Essential phage component induces resistance of bacterial community.

Abstract excerpt

Despite extensive knowledge on phage resistance at bacterium level, the resistance of bacterial communities is still not well-understood. Given its ubiquity, it is essential to understand resistance at the community level. We performed quantitative investigations on the dynamics of phage infection in Klebsiella pneumoniae biofilms. We found that the biofilms quickly developed resistance and resumed growth....
