Cells adjust growth and metabolism to nutrient availability. Having access to a variety of
carbon sources during infection of their animal hosts, facultative intracellular pathogens …

The spatial organization of gut microbiota is crucial for the functioning of the gut ecosystem,
although the mechanisms that organize gut bacterial communities in microhabitats are only …

Salmonella Typhimurium elicits gut inflammation by the costly expression of HilD-controlled
virulence factors. This inflammation alleviates colonization resistance (CR) mediated by the …

Salmonella enterica is comprised of genetically distinct 'serovars' that together provide an
intriguing model for exploring the genetic basis of pathogen evolution. Although the …

Bacteria undergo cycles of growth and starvation to which they must adapt swiftly. One
important strategy for adjusting growth rates relies on ribosomal levels. Although high …

Both the bacterial flagellum and the evolutionary related injectisome encoded on the
Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI-1) play crucial roles during the infection cycle of …

Objectives This study aims to investigate the survival ability and risk of Salmonella isolated
from traditional blood-based food, using both phtnotypic and genotypic analysis. Materials …

A. baumannii can rapidly acquire new resistance mechanisms and persist on abiotic
surface, enabling the colonization of asymptomatic human host. In Acinetobacter the type VI …

Widespread antimicrobial resistance generates an urgent need to develop better disease
prophylaxis for intestinal bacterial pathogens. While the first phase of infection with any …

Understanding the evolutionary dynamics of foodborne pathogens throughout our food
production chain is of utmost importance. In this study, we reveal that Salmonella …
