Tracking tripartite interaction dynamics: isolation, integration, and influence of bacteriophages in the Paraburkholderia-Dictyostelium discoideum symbiosis system

These findings highlight the variability of phage-symbiont interactions within a host environment and underscore the complex nature of phage treatment outcomes. The observed variability lays the foundation for future studies exploring the long-term dynamics of tripartite systems, suggesting potential mechanisms that may shape differential phage treatment outcomes and presenting valuable avenues for future investigation.
