Cross-resistance is modular in bacteria-phage interactions.
Phages shape the structure of natural bacterial communities and can be effective therapeutic agents. Bacterial resistance to phage infection, however, limits the usefulness of phage therapies and could destabilise community structures, especially if individual resistance mutations provide cross-resi...
