The paper shows how EPS-producing bacteria collectively defend against T6SS attacks through EPS sharing and flank protection.
The paper develops a fluorescence assay to quantify programmed cell suicide in E. coli during bacterial warfare, finding that under certain conditions nearly all cells lyse to release toxins, which is evolutionarily advantageous as cells are already doomed by toxin exposure.

This study shows that spatial structure in non-host environments reduces virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa by selecting against secreted virulence factors.
This study shows that re-evolving cooperation is constrained in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, as evolved cheats do not revert to full cooperation even under conditions favoring cooperation.
