Two new Subspecies of Photorhabdus luminescens, Isolated from Heterorhabditis bacteriophora (Nematoda: Heterorhabditidae): Photorhabdus luminescens subsp. kayaii subsp. nov. and Photorhabdus luminescens subsp. thracensis subsp. nov.

Systematic and Applied Microbiology, 2004
Bacterial isolates from nematodes from Turkish soil samples were initially characterized by molecular methods and seven members of the genus Photorhabdus identified to the species level, using riboprint analyses and metabolic properties. Strain 07-5 (DSM 15195) was highly related to the type strain of Photorhabdus luminescens subsp.

Photorhabdus luminescens subsp. kleinii subsp. nov. (Enterobacteriales: Enterobacteriaceae)

Current Microbiology, 2010
Association between bacteria Photorhabdus and their nematode hosts Heterorhabditis represents one of the emerging models in symbiosis studies. In this study, we isolated the bacterial symbionts of the nematode Heterorhabditis georgiana. Using gyrB sequences for phylogenetic analysis, these strains were shown to be part of the species of Photorhbdus ...

Insecticidal Toxins from the Bacterium Photorhabdus luminescens

Science, 1998
Transgenic plants expressing Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) toxins are currently being deployed for insect control. In response to concerns about Bt resistance, we investigated a toxin secreted by a different bacterium Photorhabdus luminescens, which lives in the gut of entomophagous nematodes ...

Generation of thermostable monomeric luciferases from Photorhabdus luminescens

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2002
Bacterial luciferases and the genes encoding these light-emitting enzymes have an increasing number of applications in biological sciences. Temperature lability and the heterodimeric nature of these luciferases have been the major obstacles for their widespread use, for instance, as genetic reporters.

Insecticidal Toxin Complexes from Photorhabdus luminescens

2016
Various bacterial toxins have potent insecticidal activity. Recently, the Toxin complexes (Tc's) of Photorhabdus and Xenorhabdus species have become an increased focus of current research. These large tripartite toxins with molecular masses >1.4 megadaltons consist of three components termed A, B, and C (or TcA, TcB, and TcC).

Trans-specific nematicidal activity of Photorhabdus luminescens

Nematology, 1999
Abstract Mixed culture filtrates of Photorhabdus luminescens isolated from Heterorhabditis bacteriophora H06 and from H. indica LN2 had a toxic effect on axenic H. bacteriophora H06 dauer juveniles. Single culture filtrates had no effect.

Insecticidal Activity of Photorhabdus luminescens 0805-P2R Against Plutella xylostella

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2020
Photorhabdus luminescens is an entomopathogenic rod-shaped bacterium infected with insect nematodes of the Heterorhabditidae family. It kills insects through the secretion of high molecular weight toxin complexes. In this study, Plutella xylostella larvae were orally administered P. luminescens for bioassay.
