Bidirectional Comparisons Revealed Functional Patterns in Interaction between Salmonella enterica and Plants.

ABSTRACT: Plants may harbor the human pathogen Salmonella enterica. Interactions between S. enterica and different plant species have been studied in individual reports. However, disparities arising from the distinct experimental conditions may render a meaningful comparison very difficult. This study explored interaction patterns between different S. enterica strains including serovars Typhimurium 14028s and LT2 and serovar Senftenberg, and different plants (Arabidopsis, lettuce, and tomato) in one approach. Better persistence of S. enterica serovar Typhimurium strains was observed in all tested plants, whereas the resulting symptoms varied depending on plant species. Genes encoding pathogenesis-related proteins were upregulated in plants inoculated
