A novel phase variant of the cholera pathogen shows stress-adaptive cryptic transcriptomic signatures

BACKGROUND: In a process known as phase variation, the marine bacterium and cholera pathogen Vibrio cholerae alternately expresses smooth or rugose colonial phenotypes, the latter being associated with advanced biofilm architecture and greater resistance to ecological stress. To define phase variati...
