Check out our new paper on the role of acidity in promoting symbiont specificity! Really fun to have my first squid-vibrio paper out in collaboration with @m3guerres.bsky.social at SIO.
Bobtail squid uses the #V-ATPase proton pump to acidify the microenvironment in its light organ, which promotes specificity for the recruitment of bacterial symbionts. Does this strategy apply to other #symbioses?

An acidic microenvironment produced by the V-type ATPase of Euprymna scolopes promotes specificity during Vibrio fischeri recruitment - Communications Biology
Production of an acidic microenvironment by the juvenile host’s epithelial V-type ATPase promotes the recruitment of its specific bacterial symbiont from the ambient environment.
