Differential expression of immune defences is associated with specific host-parasite interactions in insects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Recent ecological studies in invertebrates show that the outcome of an infection is dependent on the specific pairing of host and parasite. Such specificity contrasts the long-held view that invertebrate innate immunity depends on a broadspectrum ...

The Distribution of Mobile Genetic Elements (MGEs) in MRSA CC398 Is Associated with Both Host and Country. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus clonal complex (CC) 398 has emerged from pigs to cause human infections in Europe and North America. We used a new 62-strain S.

Host range, host specificity and hypothesized host shift events among viruses of lower vertebrates

open access: yesVeterinary Research, 2011
The successful replication of a viral agent in a host is a complex process that often leads to a species specificity of the virus and can make interspecies transmission difficult.

Determinants of Host Range Specificity in Legume-Rhizobia Symbiosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Leguminous plants possess the almost unique ability to enter symbiosis with soil-resident, nitrogen fixing bacteria called rhizobia. During this symbiosis, the bacteria physically colonize specialized organs on the roots of the host plant called nodules,

Zamilon, a novel virophage with Mimiviridae host specificity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Virophages, which are potentially important ecological regulators, have been discovered in association with members of the order Megavirales. Sputnik virophages target the Mimiviridae, Mavirus was identified with the Cafeteria roenbergensis virus, and ...

Analysing Parallel Strategies to Alter the Host Specificity of Bacteriophage T7

open access: yesBiology, 2021
The recognition and binding of host bacteria by bacteriophages is most often enabled by a highly specific receptor–ligand type of interaction, with the receptor-binding proteins (RBPs) of phages being the primary determinants of host specificity ...

Host Identity Specific Multicast [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Conference on Networking and Services (ICNS '07), 2007
Multicasting is a key technology for both users and service providers as it enables important bandwidth savings, and thus lower costs, for content distribution and group communication. The current network level multicast solutions have several weaknesses.

STAT2 Limits Host Species Specificity of Human Metapneumovirus

open access: yesViruses, 2020
The host tropism of viral infection is determined by a variety of factors, from cell surface receptors to innate immune signaling. Many viruses encode proteins that interfere with host innate immune recognition in order to promote infection.

The Dual Function in Virulence and Host Range Restriction of a Gene Isolated from the pPATHEhg Plasmid of Erwinia herbicola pv. gypsophilae

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2000
The host range of the gall-forming bacterium Erwinia herbicola pv. gypsophilae (Ehg) is restricted to gypsophila whereas Erwinia herbicola pv. betae (Ehb) attacks beet as well as gypsophila.

Rhizobium sp. BR816 Produces a Complex Mixture of Known and Novel Lipochitooligosaccharide Molecules

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2001
Rhizobial lipochitooligosaccharide (LCO) signal molecules induce various plant responses, leading to nodule development. We report here the LCO structures of the broad-host range strain Rhizobium sp. BR816.
