We incubated the plate inverted, so more like oozing down the side and pooling in the lid of the Petri dish…

These survived phage infection and this is what they look like after they grow up. All started off as a lab strain of P. aeruginosa (PAO1)

TLDR: most P. aeruginosa cells have active, diverse viromes that affect host-pathogen interactions.
➡️ Pf interact with host cells, interfere w/ antibiotics as @prsecor.bsky.social et al have shown.
Dynamics can be FAST! If you don't look carefully, you'll miss it! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Yeah, but this seems to be on par for all 'postponed' study sections I have heard of. Maybe some unknown directive from up the NIH food chain?
