Abstract excerpt
The natural environment places its resident microflora under stress, which may often result in adaptation by the microflora in order to increase the probability of survival. One such mechanism that has been postulated involves rpoS, which encodes a sigma factor that is known to enhance survival upon exposure to stress. The present work aimed to examine the genetic variability of rpoS in a selection of Salmonella...
