The ArcZ small RNA activates SlyA production to control contact-dependent antibacterial killing and diffusible antifungal activity in Dickeya solani
Bacterial phytopathogens deploy diverse antimicrobial systems, including diffusible secondary metabolites and contact-dependent secretion apparatuses, to compete with coinhabiting microorganisms during host colonization. How the production of these distinct weapons is coordinated remains incompletely understood. Here, we identified a two-tier regulatory cascade by which the Hfq-dependent small…
