Characterization of a single mutation in TraQ in a strain of Escherichia coli partially resistant to Qβ infection
Bacteria and virulent bacteriophages are in a prey–predator relationship. Experimental models under simplified conditions with the presence of bacteria and bacteriophages have been used to elucidate the mechanisms that have enabled both prey and predator to coexist over long periods. In experimental...
