Bacterial discrimination by dictyostelid amoebae reveals the complexity of ancient interspecies interactions [PDF]

, 2013
Background Amoebae and bacteria interact within predator-prey and host-pathogen relationships, but the general response of amoeba to bacteria is not well understood.

Genome-wide analysis reveals loci encoding anti-macrophage factors in the human pathogen burkholderia pseudomallei K96243 [PDF]

, 2010
Burkholderia pseudomallei is an important human pathogen whose infection biology is still poorly understood. The bacterium is endemic to tropical regions, including South East Asia and Northern Australia, where it causes melioidosis, a serious disease ...

The social behaviours of bacterial pathogens [PDF]

British Medical Bulletin, 2008
The term quorum sensing (QS) is used to describe communication between bacterial cells, whereby a coordinated population response is controlled by diffusible signal molecules produced by individuals.Studies on QS-mediated signalling processes in bacteria have revealed the existence of intricate regulatory networks to enable bacterial populations to ...

Role of macrophage sialoadhesin in host defense against the sialylated pathogen group B Streptococcus [PDF]

, 2014
Several bacterial pathogens decorate their surfaces with sialic acid (Sia) residues within cell wall components or capsular exopolysaccharides. Sialic acid expression can promote bacterial virulence by blocking complement activation or by engagement of ...

Bacterial pore-forming toxin pneumolysin drives pathogenicity through host extracellular vesicles released during infection

iScience
Summary: Streptococcus pneumoniae is a global priority respiratory pathogen that kills over a million people annually. The pore-forming cytotoxin, pneumolysin (PLY) is a major virulence factor.

Bacterial Genomics and Pathogen Evolution [PDF]

Cell, 2006
The availability of hundreds of bacterial genome sequences has altered the study of bacterial pathogenesis, affecting both design of experiments and analysis of results. Comparative genomics and genomic tools have been used to identify virulence factors and genes involved in environmental persistence of pathogens.

Characterising the genetic diversity of Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae isolated from rice and wheat in Iran

Plant Protection Science, 2012
Sheath rot of rice and leaf blight of wheat caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae are the important bacterial pathogens of rice and wheat in Iran. The randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) method was used to investigate the genetic diversity of

Rice Stomatal Mega-Papillae Restrict Water Loss and Pathogen Entry

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Rice (Oryza sativa) is a water-intensive crop, and like other plants uses stomata to balance CO2 uptake with water-loss. To identify agronomic traits related to rice stomatal complexes, an anatomical screen of 64 Thai and 100 global rice cultivars was ...
