Vibrio cholerae motility exerts drag force to impede attack by the bacterial predator Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus

Prey bacteria have evolved different strategies to counteract predation but the genetic basis remains unclear. Here, Duncan et al. identify key genes involved in Vibrio cholerae sensitivity to Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus predation, providing new insights into prey resistance mechanisms.
