Two novel genes identified by large-scale transcriptomic analysis are essential for biofilm and rugose colony development of Vibrio vulnificus.
Many pathogenic bacteria form biofilms to survive under environmental stresses and host immune defenses. Differential expression (DE) analysis of the genes in biofilm and planktonic cells under a single condition, however, has limitations to identify the genes essential for biofilm formation. Indepe...
