GLOBAL GENE EXPRESSION ANALYSIS OF CROSS-PROTECTED PHENOTYPE OF PECTOBACTERIUM ATROSEPTICUM.

The ability to adapt to adverse conditions permits many bacterial species to be virtually ubiquitous and survive in a variety of ecological niches.This ability is of particular importance for many plant pathogenic bacteria that should be able to exist, except for their host plants, in different environments e.g.soil, water, insect-vectors etc.Under

High irradiation and the presence of xenobiotics favor the formation of reactive oxygen species in marine environments.Organisms have developed antioxidant defenses, including the accumulation of carotenoids that must be obtained from the diet.Astaxanthin is the main carotenoid in marine crustaceans where, among other functions, it scavenges free r
