[edit] Comments
One of the least common bacteria in the human digestive tract. It is the most commonly used model organism in molecular biology and as such is probably the least understood organism in the world.
"Escherichia coli, originally known as Bacterium coli commune ..." - from the Bacteriological Analytical Manual Online, Sept 2002, Ch.4[1]
(Should this older name be added to the ===Synonyms=== subsection on the article page?)
