Tn-Seq Analysis Identifies Genes Important for <named-content content-type="genus-species">Yersinia pestis</named-content> Adherence during Primary Pneumonic Plague

ABSTRACT Following inhalation, Yersinia pestis rapidly colonizes the lung to establish infection during primary pneumonic plague. Although several adhesins have been identified in Yersinia spp., the factors mediating early Y. pestis adherence in the lung remain unknown. To identify genes important f...
