This idea was inspired by the theory of Prisoner’s Dilemma. As in prisoners’ dilemma, the bacteria in our design are faced with two solutions for coexistence, they could either choose to cooperate with one another by providing inducers to express their partners’ antibiotics-resistance genes or they could take a foe strategy in which no cooperation is needed for both strains’ survival. |
