from food-producing animals that is responsible for zoonotic infections in humans and …

The genus Aeromonas belongs to the Aeromonadaceae family and comprises a group of
Gram-negative bacteria widely distributed in aquatic environments, with some species able …

Biotic and abiotic surfaces in marine waters are rapidly colonized by microorganisms.
Surface colonization and subsequent biofilm formation and development provide numerous …

The Type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a protein nanomachine that is widespread in Gram-
negative bacteria and is used to translocate effector proteins directly into neighbouring cells …

In recent years, the effectiveness of antimicrobials in the treatment of Pseudomonas
aeruginosa infections has gradually decreased. This pathogen can be observed in several …

The mammalian gastrointestinal tract is colonized by a high-density polymicrobial
community where bacteria compete for niches and resources. One key competition strategy …

The ubiquitous “jack-of-all-trades,” Aeromonas hydrophila, is a freshwater, Gram-negative
bacterial pathogen under revision in regard to its phylogenetic and functional affiliation with …

Bacterial biofilms are the basis of many persistent diseases. The persistence of these
infections is primarily attributed to the increased antibiotic resistance exhibited by the cells …

The functional spectrum of a secretion system is defined by its substrates. Here we analyzed
the secretomes of Pseudomonas aeruginosa mutants altered in regulation of the Hcp …

Microbial communities span many orders of magnitude, ranging in scale from hundreds of
cells on a single particle of soil to billions of cells within the lumen of the gastrointestinal …
