Figure 1 A Glowing Example of a Powerful Invertebrate-Microbe Model System Research on the bioluminescent partnership between the Hawaiian bobtail squid (Euprymna scolopes; top panel) and the marine bacterium Vibrio fischeri (bottom panel) has illuminated the complex, stepwise process underlying initiation, establishment, and maintenance of a beneficial host-microbe interaction. The V. fischeri cells shown here are expressing green fluorescent protein. Image credits: Eric Roettinger/Kahi Kai Images (E. scolopes image); Mark J. Mandel (V. fischeri image).
