Abstract excerpt
Flagella are essential for bacterial motility and biofilm formation by aiding bacterial attachment to surfaces. However, the impact of flagella on bacterial behavior, particularly biofilm formation, remains unclear. This study constructed two flagellar mutation strains of Salmonella Enteritidis (SE), namely, SE-ΔflhD and SE-ΔflgE, and confirmed the loss of flagellar structures and motility in these strains. The...
