Bacterial c-di-GMP plays a key role in the evolution of host-association

N. Obeng, A. Czerwinski, D. Schuetz, J. Michels, J. Leipert, F. Bansept, T. Schultheiss, M. Kemlein, J. Fuss, A. Tholey, A. Traulsen, H. Schulenburg

This study shows that c-di-GMP upregulation enables bacteria to adapt to host-association across diverse species.
