Alternative stable states in host–phage dynamics

Theoretical Ecology, 2007
Bacteriophage are ubiquitous in nature, yet many central aspects of host–phage biology have not been integrated into mathematical models. We propose a novel model of host–phage population dynamics that accounts for the decreased ability of phages to lyse hosts as hosts approach their carrying capacity. In contrast to existing predator–prey-like models,

SURVIVAL OF COLLETORICHUM ACUTATUM ON ALTERNATE HOSTS

Acta Horticulturae, 2012
The fungal pathogen Colletotrichum acutatum causes anthracnose disease of fruit and other plant parts and has the potential of rapidly destroying the whole crop. In 2008, C. acutatum was considered a quarantine pathogen in the European Union, but its status has now been changed to a nursery pathogen.

Alternate hosts of cucumber powdery mildew

Annals of Applied Biology, 1962
SUMMARYCucumber powdery mildew is a common obligate parasite of glasshouse cucurbit crops in Britain. In the Cucurbitaceae only the genus Luffa was immune to infection. The fungus cannot survive the winter on cucurbits, but may persist on alternate hosts. Several common weeds were susceptible to experimental infection by the fungus and Sonchus asper is

Butterfly larvae reduce host plant survival in vicinity of alternative host species

Oecologia, 1986
Mortality of an annual plant. Collinsia torreyi, was increased in the vicinity of Pedicularis semibarbata plants. This was a consequence of feeding by Euphydryas editha, a herbivore which feeds on both plant species. Mortality of C. torreyi was better predicted by distance from P. semibarbata than by density of C. torreyi.

Tacrolimus: An Alternative for Graft-Versus-Host Disease Prevention

Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 2000
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of tacrolimus for prevention of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in patients receiving allogeneic bone marrow transplants. DATA SOURCES: Published literature was identified through MEDLINE (January 1990–December 1998) using the key words tacrolimus, FK506, graft-versus-host disease, and bone marrow transplant.

Alternate Hosts of Russian Wheat Aphid (Homoptera: Aphididae)

Journal of Economic Entomology, 1989
Russian wheat aphids, Diuraphis noxia (Mordvilko), were first detected in the United States in 1986. By September 1988, they had been found in 15 states and were considered a major threat to wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) and barley ( Hordeum vulgare L.) grown in the United States and Canada.

Avocardo, an alternate host for Oncobasidium theobromae.

Australasian Plant Pathology, 1989
Avocado seedlings on Kar Kar Island (Papua New Guinea) were found to be infected with Oncobasidium theobromae, a fungus that has previously been found only on cocoa. The growth habit of the fungus in avocado was very similar to that in cocoa, although there was a difference in the leaf symptoms induced. While the presence of O.

Alternative Synthetic Biology Bacterial Host Development

Herein is described efforts towards developing an alternative bacterial host (synthetic biology chassis) based on Burkholderia sp. FERM BP-3421. As described in Chapter 2, genomic, epigenomic, and metabolomic data sets were used to guide the discovery of a novel nonribosomal peptide from Burkholderia sp. FERM BP-3421.
