Evolutionary responses of Escherichia coli to phage pressure: insights into mucoidy and colanic acid overexpression

Abstract Background Antibiotic resistance is a major issue affecting all spheres of human activity, including agriculture. One significant example is the Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC), a bacterium that infects poultry and leads to substantial economic losses in the farming industry. As an...
