Seeds contaminated with foodborne pathogens, such as Shiga toxin-producingE. coli, are the primary sources of contamination in produce and have contributed to numerous foodborne outbreaks. Antibiotic resistance has been a long-lasting issue that poses a threat to human health and the food industry.
