Defining pathogenic bacterial species in the genomic era
... pathogenic bacteria have demonstrated that removing a certain number of genes from pathogens eliminates their capacity to infect hosts. The suppression of certain genes decreases their “fitness” in the ecosystem in which they evolved and became specialized. Each of the removed genes was therefore re ...
