| Abstract |
Contamination of vegetables and fruits is the result of presence of human pathogen bacteria which can contaminate products in any part of production chain. There is an evidence of presence of: Salmonella spp. on the fresh vegetables and Salmonellosis is connected with tomato, sprouts, cantaloupe etc. The goal of this research is transmission of pathogen bacteria from irrigation water to plants and studying/monitoring the ability of the Salmonella spp. to colonize the surface and interior (endophytic colonization) of root at different vegetable species. Transmission of three Salmonella spp. strains from irrigation water to plants, as well as colonization of plants by these bacteria was investigated by using Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) in combination with confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). All tested Salmonella spp. strains showed ability to more or less colonize the surface and interior niches of the root, stem and leaf of the investigated plant species. These bacteria also were found in plant cells cytoplasm, although the mechanism of their entrance has not been clarified yet. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 71. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 01 May 2018.
All research outputs
#600,932
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Microbial Pathogenesis
#11
of 3,304 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#13,586
of 443,583 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Microbial Pathogenesis
#1
of 110 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 97th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,304 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.1. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 99% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 443,583 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 110 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 99% of its contemporaries.
