Tripartite interactions between filamentous Pf4 bacteriophage, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and bacterivorous nematodes

This study shows that curing Pseudomonas aeruginosa of Pf4 phage infection increases virulence in C. elegans by enhancing PQS quorum sensing and pyocyanin production, but nematodes unable to detect bacterial pigments are more susceptible to the Pf4-cured strain.

Bacterial threat assessment of bacteriophage infection is mediated by intracellular polyamine accumulation and Gac/Rsm signaling

This study shows that Pseudomonas aeruginosa uses intracellular polyamine accumulation and Gac/Rsm signaling to assess bacterial cell death and inhibit phage replication.
