Genomic screen identifies a role for the plasmid-borne type II secretion system

A high-throughput genomic screen identifies a role for the plasmid-borne type II secretion system of Escherichia coli O157:H7 (Sakai) in plant-microbe interactions

  Genomic screen identifies a role for the plasmid-borne type II Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC) is often transmitted to the food through fresh products plant, where it can cause disease. To identify factors for STEC early interaction in spinach, positive system used high-throughput selection. An …
