Abstract excerpt
The ability to generate a subpopulation of small colony variants (SCVs) is a conserved feature of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and could represent a key adaptive strategy to colonize and persist in multiple niches. However, very little is known about the role of the SCV phenotype, the conditions that promote its emergence, and its possible involvement in an adaptive strategy. In the present work, we investigated the in...
