Some factors were involved in resistance to a single stressor, while other factors were linked to multiple stressors. DNA repair mechanisms were important for resisting multiple stressors, while transcriptional regulator function was linked to nitrosative stress. Additionally, a factor\u2019s ability to enhance nitrosative stress resistance was significantly correlated with intracellular fitness and fitness in the spleen during infection.
