Microbial warfare mediated by the type VI protein secretion system
“The best defense is a good offence”, a military motto, also applies to the warfare of primitive microbes in complex multispecies environments. The type VI secretion system (T6SS), a lethal weapon Gram-negative bacteria employ to deliver toxic effectors to neighboring cells, drives the formation of clonal single-species clusters from mixed populations, defining the social boundary of a multispecies community.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
