A Commensal Bacterium Promotes Virulence of an Opportunistic Pathogen via Cross-Respiration
ABSTRACT Bacteria rarely inhabit infection sites alone, instead residing in diverse, multispecies communities. Despite this fact, bacterial pathogenesis studies primarily focus on monoculture infections, overlooking how community interactions influence the course of disease. In this study, we used g...
