An antimicrobial peptide-resistant minor subpopulation of Photorhabdus luminescens is responsible for virulence

Some of the bacterial cells in isogenic populations behave differently from others. We describe here how a new type of phenotypic heterogeneity relating to resistance to cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMPs) is determinant for the pathogenic infection process of the entomopathogenic bacterium Phot...
