Tracking tripartite interaction dynamics: isolation, integration, and influence of bacteriophages in the Paraburkholderia-Dictyostelium discoideum symbiosis system

IntroductionBacteriophages influence interactions between bacterial symbionts and their hosts by exerting parasitic pressure on symbiont populations and facilitating bacterial evolution through selection, gene exchange, and prophage integration. Host organisms also modulate phage-bacteria interactio...
