Genome-wide analysis exploring mechanisms used by Shigella sonnei to survive long-term nutrient starvation

Xosé M. Matanza, P. Brian Leung, Vincenzo Torraca…·Abigail Clements

This study identifies molecular mechanisms enabling S. sonnei to outlast S. flexneri during nutrient starvation, highlighting key pathways and suggesting multigenic adaptation contributes to its epidemiological dominance.
