Diversity and Local Coadaptation of Escherichia coli and Coliphages From Small Ruminants

Abstract: Bacteriophages are highly specific predators that drive bacterial diversity through coevolution while striking tradeoffs among preserving host populations for long-term exploitation and increasing their virulence, structural stability, or host range. Escherichia coli and other coliform bacteria present in the microbiota of milk and during early ripening of raw milk cheeses have been linked to the production of gas, manifested by the appearance of eyes, and the development of off-flavors; thus, they might cause… Show more

“…To design a phage cocktail, we will use a previously obtained quantitative host range matrix ( Molina et al, 2020 ) comprising reference E. coli strains ( Table 1 ) and isolates from goat and ewe raw milk cheeses and coliphages isolated from sheep feces ( Figure 2B ). To evaluate both modularity and nestedness, the heatmap was transformed into bipartite values (lysis/no lysis).…”

“…In contrast to the algorithms that determine modularity and nestedness ( Figure 2B ), hierarchical clustering does not require bipartite matrices and allows us to consider virulence apart from the host range of the phages. To formulate a phage cocktail, we used a quantitative host range matrix comprising E. coli from different sources ( Table 2 ) and coliphages isolated from sheep feces ( Molina et al, 2020 ) that includes the same bacteria and phages depicted in Figure 3A . The hierarchical clustering of the coliphages by Ward’s method generated seven clusters ( Figure 7A ), each exhibiting a different host range (R) and virulence (V).…”
