An intrinsic mechanism for coordinated production of the contact-dependent and contact-independent weapon systems in a soil bacterium.
Soil bacteria possess multiple weapons to fend off microbial competitors. Currently, we poorly understand the factors guiding bacterial decisions about weapon systems deployment. In this study, we investigated how such decisions are made by the soil bacterium Lysobacter enzymogenes, used in antifung...
