Role of chemotaxis in the association of motile bacteria with intestinal mucosa: fitness and virulence of nonchemotactic Vibrio cholerae mutants in infant mice

Contrary to earlier findings with all other in vivo and in vitro models of cholera studied, nonchemotactic vibrio mutants showed a relatively greater fitness in 5-day-old infant mice as compared with chemotactic parent or chemotactic revertant strains. This trend was manifest in the relatively great...
