Phage infection fronts trigger early sporulation and collective defense in bacterial populations

Abstract Bacteriophage (phage) infect, lyse, and propagate within bacterial populations. However, physiological changes in bacterial cell state can protect against infection even within genetically susceptible populations. One such example is the generation of endospores by Bacillus and its relatives, characterized by a reversible state of reduced metabolic activity that protects cells against stressors including desiccation, energy limitation, antibiotics, and infection by phage.
