Abstract
⺠Epiphytic bacteria reduced E.coli O157:H7 when co-inoculated on spinach leaves. ⺠Epiphytic bacteria increased E. coli O157:H7 on detached spinach leaves. ⺠A cellobiose wash solution decreased E.coli O157:H7 numbers on detached spinach. ⺠Growth reduction of E.coli O157:H7 was associated with competition for nutrients. ⺠Stimulatory epiphytes did not compete for carbon sources with E.coli O157:H7.
