Genomic Analysis of Putative Virulence Factors Affecting Cytotoxicity of Cronobacter

Cronobacter spp. can cause systemic infections, such as meningitis, sepsis, and necrotizing enterocolitis, in immunocompromised patients, especially neonates. Although some virulence factors have been reported previously, the pathogenesis of Cronobacter remains unclear. In this study, we compared ge...
