Survey of Toxin–Antitoxin Systems in <i>Erwinia amylovora</i> Reveals Insights into Diversity and Functional Specificity

Toxin&#8211;antitoxin (TA) systems are diverse genetic modules with demonstrated roles in plasmid stability, stress management, biofilm formation and antibiotic persistence. However, relatively little is known about their functional significance in plant pathogens. In this study we characterize...
