Soft rot pathogen Dickeya dadantii 3937 produces tailocins resembling the tails of Peduovirus P2

Tailocins are nanomolecular machines with bactericidal activity. They are produced by bacteria to contribute to fitness in mixed communities, and hence, they play a critical role in their ecology in a variety of habitats. Here, we characterized the new tailocin produced by Dickeya dadantii strain 39...
