The plant pathogen Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum (previously Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora) causes soft rot and stem rot diseases in a variety of crops, including Chinese cabbage, potato, and tomato. The flagellar-type III secretion systems were used by Pcc’s virulence mechani...
