Coccidioidomycosis in selected immunosuppressed hosts [PDF]

Medical Mycology, 2018
After contracting coccidioidomycosis, persons with impaired cellular immunity are more likely than healthy persons to have severe infection, disseminated infection, and higher mortality rates. In this brief review, we summarize the clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of coccidioidomycosis in persons infected with human ...

Host selection shapes crop microbiome assembly and network complexity.

New Phytologist, 2020
Plant microbiomes are essential to host health and productivity but the ecological processes that govern crop microbiome assembly are not fully known. Here we examined bacterial communities across 684 samples from soils (rhizosphere and bulk soil) and ...

Hosts and Heterologous Expression Strategies of Recombinant Toxins for Therapeutic Purposes

Toxins, 2023
The production of therapeutic recombinant toxins requires careful host cell selection. Bacteria, yeast, and mammalian cells are common choices, but no universal solution exists.

Sociobiological Control of Plasmid copy number [PDF]

, 2008
Background: All known mechanisms and genes responsible for the regulation of plasmid replication lie with the plasmid rather than the chromosome. It is possible therefore that there can be copy-up mutants.

Multi-host environments select for host-generalist conjugative plasmids [PDF]

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2016
Conjugative plasmids play an important role in bacterial evolution by transferring ecologically important genes within and between species. A key limit on interspecific horizontal gene transfer is plasmid host range. Here, we experimentally test the effect of single and multi-host environments on the host-range evolution of a large conjugative mercury ...

High Rate of Non-Human Feeding by Aedes aegypti Reduces Zika Virus Transmission in South Texas

Viruses, 2020
Mosquito-borne viruses are emerging or re-emerging globally, afflicting millions of people around the world. Aedes aegypti, the yellow fever mosquito, is the principal vector of dengue, Zika, and chikungunya viruses, and has well-established populations ...

Association and Host Selectivity in Multi-Host Pathogens

PLoS ONE, 2006
The distribution of multi-host pathogens over their host range conditions their population dynamics and structure. Also, host co-infection by different pathogens may have important consequences for the evolution of hosts and pathogens, and host-pathogen co-evolution. Hence it is of interest to know if the distribution of pathogens over their host range

Community Assembly of Fungi and Bacteria along Soil-Plant Continuum Differs in a Zoige Wetland

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Distinct plant associated microbiomes live in rhizosphere soil, roots, and leaves. However, the differences in community assembly of fungi and bacteria along soil-plant continuum are less documented in ecosystems.

Effect of hosts on competition among clones and evidence of differential selection between pathogenic and saprophytic phases in experimental populations of the wheat pathogen Phaeosphaeria nodorum

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011
Background Monoculture, multi-cropping and wider use of highly resistant cultivars have been proposed as mechanisms to explain the elevated rate of evolution of plant pathogens in agricultural ecosystems.
