Observation of persister cell histories reveals diverse modes of survival in antibiotic persistence

M. Umetani, M. Fujisawa, R. Okura, T. Nozoe, S. Suenaga, H. Nakaoka, E. Kussell, Y. Wakamoto

The paper characterizes persister cell dynamics in E. coli by tracking individual cells exposed to antibiotics, revealing diverse survival mechanisms depending on growth phase and antibiotic type.

Core genes can have higher recombination rates than accessory genes within global microbial populations

A. Preska Steinberg, M. Lin, E. Kussell

The paper measures recombination rates in core and accessory genes across 12 microbial species using whole genome sequences, finding core genes have higher recombination rates and shorter coalescence times.

Ecological memory preserves phage resistance mechanisms in bacteria

A. Skanata, E. Kussell

The paper shows that maintaining a non-zero failure rate of immunity allows hosts to sustain pathogen levels, preventing loss of defense mechanisms despite their costs.
