Exploiting interbacterial antagonism for microbiome engineering. [PDF]

Curr Opin Biomed Eng, 2021
Interbacterial antagonism can significantly impact microbiome assembly and stability and can potentially be exploited to modulate microbes and microbial communities in diverse environments, ranging from natural habitats to industrial bioreactors. Here we highlight key mechanisms of interspecies antagonism that rely on direct cell-to-cell contact or ...
