摘要

Bacteria often live in dense communities. The living together has fostered the evolution of diverse social interactions between strains and species, ranging from cooperation to competition. Here, we use examples of human opportunistic pathogens to introduce the concepts and mechanisms of bacterial interactions and explain how they may affect the interplay with the host and antibacterial therapies.
