Small bacterial clusters are required for recovery after large expulsion events. (A) Maximum-intensity projections of untreated Enterobacter populations before (Top, t=2 h from the start of imaging) and after (Bottom, t=3 h) an expulsion event (Movie S5). (Scale bar, 200 μm.) (B) Schematic of a kinetic model of bacterial cluster dynamics, illustrating its 4 constituent processes. (C) Image-derived time series of Enterobacter abundance in 5 untreated hosts showing sporadic large expulsion events.
