Abstract excerpt
Type III secretion systems (T3SSs) play important roles in mediating interactions between bacteria and eukaryotic hosts by delivering effectors into host cells, yet their genetic diversity and evolutionary dynamics among rhizosphere-associated members of Pseudomonas fluorescens species complex (PFSC) remain poorly understood. We conducted a genome-based evolutionary analysis of T3SSs across a global collection of...
