Genomic complexity and plasticity ofBurkholderia cepacia [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1996 Burkholderia cepacia has attracted attention because of its extraordinary degradative abilities and its potential as a pathogen for plants and for humans. This bacterium was formerly considered to belong to the genus Pseudomonas in the gamma-subclass of the Proteobacteria, but recently has been assigned to the beta-subclass is based on rrn gene ...

Review: Lipopolysaccharide of Burkholderia cepacia complex [PDF]
Journal of Endotoxin Research, 2003 BurKholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) is a group of phenotypically similar, genetically distinct bacteria that are beneficial to the environment but can also cause severe human infections. Bcc are being exploited for use as bioremediation agents and as a way to combat agricultural plant diseases.
