Fig. 1. — Saturating relationship between the efficacy and richness of phage combinations. The efficiency of phage combinations was measured as mean efficacy (±sd) of bacterial growth suppression in the presence of phage relative to phage-free growth; raw data in grey. The dotted line at 1 indicates complete suppression of bacterial growth by the phage community. An asymptotic exponential with the equation shown was fit to the data using a non-linear least squares model.
