Receptor Polymorphism Restricts Contact-Dependent Growth Inhibition to Members of the Same Species
Bacteria that express contact-dependent growth inhibition (CDI) systems outcompete siblings that lack immunity, suggesting that CDI mediates intercellular competition. To further explore the role of CDI in competition, we determined the target cell range of the CDI(EC93) system from Escherichia coli...
