Model of squid-vibrio interactions. V. fischeri (red) initially induces an irreversible morphogenetic signal that shapes the light organ. The presence of the symbiont then actively influences host genes, whose expression changes to accommodate symbionts and their long-term maintenance within the light organ. The light organ was drawn by Suzanne Peyer and is reproduced with her permission. Ext., external; Int, internal.
