Phenotypic variation in Photorhabdus. Promoter inversion toggles the bacterium between a pathogenic P-form and an M-form that initiates nematode mutualism. A new understanding of the genetic form switching mechanism enables engineered locked states to examine the metabolic status associated with phenotypic variation. Adapted from Somvanshi et al [62].
