In this study, E. coli ATCC 35218 was used as a model microorganism to evaluate the susceptibility to enterobacteria contamination in 30 accessions of baby leaves belonging to 13 different species. Then, a selected number of accessions (those with the highest and the lowest susceptibility) were characterized for leaf micro‐morphological traits (stomata density and size and surface roughness) and water content to identify the leaf traits possibly involved in the bacterial adherence.

Abstract
In this study, E. coli ATCC 35218 was used as a model microorganism to evaluate the susceptibility to enterobacteria contamination in 30 accessions of baby leaves belonging to 13 different species. Then, a selected number of accessions (those with the highest and the lowest susceptibility) were characterized for leaf micro‐morphological traits (stomata density and size and surface roughness) and water content to identify the leaf traits possibly involved in the bacterial adherence.
