Galleria mellonella Reveals Niche Differences Between Highly Pathogenic and Closely Related Strains of Francisella spp.

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
Francisella tularensis, a highly virulent bacteria that causes the zoonotic disease tularemia, is considered a potential agent of biological warfare and bioterrorism.

Putting Rodents at the Center of One Health Programs: A Narrative Synthesis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Rodents link human, animal, and environmental health across diverse ecosystems. Rodent diversity underpins both zoonotic disease risk and ecosystem function. Environmental change reshapes rodent communities and spillover dynamics. Rodents act as reservoirs, amplifiers, and sentinels of emerging pathogens.

Genome characterisation of the genus Francisella reveals insight into similar evolutionary paths in pathogens of mammals and fish

BMC Genomics, 2012
Background Prior to this study, relatively few strains of Francisella had been genome-sequenced. Previously published Francisella genome sequences were largely restricted to the zoonotic agent F. tularensis.

The First Report of Cod Gill Poxvirus in Gills of Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua L.) Suffering From Cardiorespiratory Disease

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 48, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Atlantic cod farming experiences renewed growth in Norway, and increased awareness is essential to address emerging diseases in this species. There are few reports on gill diseases in cod, and to date, no viral gill infections of cod have been documented. In this study, we collected samples from three sequential time points in summer 2023 from

Francisella species in ticks and animals, Iberian Peninsula

, 2016
The presence of Francisella species in 2134 ticks, 93 lagomorphs and 280 small mammals from the Iberian Peninsula was studied. Overall, 19 ticks and 6 lagomorphs were positive for Francisella tularensis subsp.

Chemical Synthesis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Acinetobacter baumannii Capsular Polysaccharide Fragments as Leads for Cross‐Protection

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 6, 2 February 2026.
A total of 16 chemically synthesized capsular polysaccharide (CPS) fragments related to Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Acinetobacter baumannii were analyzed by glycan microarray. Comparative screening revealed three conserved epitopes that act as cross‐protective vaccine lead candidates against multidrug‐resistant (MDR) bacterial ...

Sea Lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) Harbour Putative Fish Pathogens: Insights From Illumina and Nanopore Sequencing

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ectoparasites that penetrate host skin can act as biological or mechanical vectors for pathogens and, in some cases, serve as reservoirs. Crustacean ectoparasites of fish are potential vectors of pathogens, which is especially relevant for obligate pathogens (e.g., Aeromonas salmonicida) with limited seawater survival. Sea lice (Lepeophtheirus

Immunobiological Properties of Francisella tularensis 15/10 Strain with Deleted recA Gene

Проблемы особо опасных инфекций, 2011
Deletion of recA gene in Francisella tularensis 15/10 genome leads to the increase in its sensitivity to ultraviolet irradiation, reduction of the homologous recombination capacity, and a slight decline of virulence for mice.

Outbreaks of Granulomatous Disease Associated With Vibrio harveyi Infection in Grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus × E. lanceolatus) Aquaculture in Taiwan

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Between 2015 and 2024, outbreaks of muscular and visceral granulomatous disease, resulting in moderate‐to‐severe mortality in farmed groupers, occurred in southern Taiwan. Initially, affected groupers were screened for granuloma‐associated pathogens, including Mycobacterium spp., Nocardia spp., Photobacterium damselae and Edwardsiella spp ...

Phenotypic characterization of the Francisella tularensis ΔpdpC and ΔiglG mutants

, 2016
Several bacterial pathogens interact with their host through protein secretion effectuated by a type VI secretion system (T6SS). Francisella tularensis is a highly pathogenic intracellular bacterium that causes the disease tularemia.
