Nutrient conditions are primary drivers of bacterial capsule maintenance in Klebsiella
The fitness cost associated with the production of bacterial capsules is considered to be offset by the protection provided by these extracellular structures against biotic aggressions or abiotic stress. However, it is unknown if the capsule contributes to fitness in the absence of these. Here, we e...
