Table 1 Contribution of clpA and clpB in the caecal colonization of S. Typhimurium. Six days old chicks were orally inoculated with different strains of S. Typhimurium (as indicated in Table). At different times post infection, the birds were dissected and presence of S. Typhimurium and mutant strains were confirmed by PCR (as described in materials and methods).
