Insects as alternative hosts for phytopathogenic bacteria [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2011 Phytopathogens have evolved specialized pathogenicity determinants that enable them to colonize their specific plant hosts and cause disease, but their intimate associations with plants also predispose them to frequent encounters with herbivorous insects, providing these phytopathogens with ample opportunity to colonize and eventually evolve ...

Alternative Host Model To Evaluate Aeromonas Virulence [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2007 ABSTRACT Bacterial virulence can only be assessed by confronting bacteria with a host. Here, we present a new simple assay to evaluate Aeromonas virulence, making use of Dictyostelium amoebae as an alternative host model.
