Acidobacteria represents an underrepresented soil bacterial phylum whose members are
pervasive and copiously distributed across nearly all ecosystems. Acidobacterial sequences …

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is a primary enteric pathogen infecting both
humans and animals. Infection begins with the ingestion of contaminated food or water so …

Data indicate that prevalence of specific serovars of Salmonella enterica in human
foodborne illness is not correlated with their prevalence in feed. Given that feed is a …

The complete genomes of three strains from the phylum Acidobacteria were compared.
Phylogenetic analysis placed them as a unique phylum. They share genomic traits with …

The ability of Salmonella to form complex surface-associated communities, called biofilms,
contributes to its resistance and persistence in both host and non-host environments and is …

Biofilms are a self-protection growth pattern of bacteria, which are different from planktonic
cells. They have been of considerable interest in food hygiene since biofilms may contain …

Some Enterobacteriaceae possess the ability to survive in low-moisture environments for
extended periods of time. Many of the reported food-borne outbreaks associated with low …

Water is vital for many biological processes and is essential for all living organisms.
However, numerous macroorganisms and microorganisms have adapted to survive in …

Bacteria commonly form dense biofilms encased in extracellular polymeric substances
(EPS). Biofilms are often extremely tolerant to antimicrobials but their reliance on shared …

Soil priming is a microbial‐driven process, which determines key soil–climate feedbacks in
response to fresh carbon inputs. Despite its importance, the microbial traits behind this …
