Horizontally Acquired Quorum-Sensing Regulators Recruited by the PhoP Regulatory Network Expand the Host Adaptation Repertoire in the Phytopathogen Pectobacterium brasiliense

Horizontally Acquired Quorum-Sensing Regulators Recruited by the PhoP Regulatory Network Expand the Host Adaptation Repertoire in the Phytopathogen Pectobacterium brasiliense

In this study, we examine the impact of transcriptional network rearrangements driven by horizontal gene acquisition in PhoP and SlyA regulons using as a case study a phytopathosystem comprised of potato tubers and the soft-rot pathogen Pectobacterium brasiliense 1692 (Pb1692).In this study, we exam...
