Predictable Molecular Adaptation of Coevolving Enterococcus faecium and Lytic Phage EfV12-phi1
Bacteriophages are highly abundant in human microbiota where they coevolve with resident bacteria. Phage predation can drive the evolution of bacterial resistance, which can then drive reciprocal evolution in the phage to overcome that resistance. Such coevolutionary dynamics have not been extensive...
