Abstract
Enterococcus cecorum is an emerging pathogen that causes economic losses in the poultry industry; however, our understanding of its pathogenesis remains limited. Because the lack of gene manipulation methods has hampered E. cecorum studies, we developed genetic manipulation methods for this organism using plasmids used in other gram-positive cocci.
