Non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are emerging serogroups that
often result in diseases ranging from diarrhea to severe hemorrhagic colitis in humans. The …

Enteric pathogens rely on a variety of toxins, adhesins and other virulence factors to cause
infections. Some of the best studied pathogens belong to the Enterobacterales order; these …

Hybrid strains of Escherichia coli combine virulence traits of diarrheagenic (DEC) and
extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC), but it is poorly understood whether these …

Urinary tract infections (UTI) affect community and healthcare patients worldwide and may
have different clinical outcomes. We assessed the phylogenetic origin, the presence of 43 …

Many plant pathogenic bacteria suppress host defenses by secreting small molecule toxins
or immune-suppressing proteins into host cells, processes that likely require close physical …

Increasing evidence demonstrated that Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) and
Shigella dysenteriae type 1 (S. dysenteriae1) are considered pathogens, that are connected …

Escherichia coli EC121 is a multidrug-resistant (MDR) strain isolated from a bloodstream
infection of an inpatient with persistent gastroenteritis and T-zone lymphoma that died due to …

Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) strains are subdivided into typical (tEPEC) and
atypical (aEPEC) according to the presence or absence of a virulence-associated plasmid …

For centuries, Gram‐negative pathogens have infected the human population and been
responsible for numerous diseases in animals and plants. Despite advancements in …

Lysobacter species have attracted increasing attention in recent years due to their capacities
to produce diverse secondary metabolites against phytopathogens. In this research, we …
