Antibacterial activity of Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus isolated from entomopathogenic nematodes against antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus, symbiotically associated with entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs), produce a range of antimicrobial compounds. The objective of this study is to identify Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus and their EPNs hosts, which were isolated ...

LuxS-dependent AI-2 production is not involved in global regulation of natural product biosynthesis in Photorhabdus and Xenorhabdus [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
The Gram-negative bacteria Photorhabdus and Xenorhabdus are known to produce a variety of different natural products (NP). These compounds play different roles since the bacteria live in symbiosis with nematodes and are pathogenic to insect larvae in the

Stilbene epoxidation and detoxification in a Photorhabdus luminescens-nematode symbiosis. [PDF]

J Biol Chem, 2017
Members of the gammaproteobacterial Photorhabdus genus share mutualistic relationships with Heterorhabditis nematodes, and the pairs infect a wide swath of insect larvae. Photorhabdus species produce a family of stilbenes, with two major components being 3,5-dihydroxy-4-isopropyl-trans-stilbene (compound 1) and its stilbene epoxide (compound 2).

Isolation and identification of Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus bacteria associated with entomopathogenic nematodes and their larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti

Parasites & Vectors, 2017
Background Aedes aegypti is a potential vector of West Nile, Japanese encephalitis, chikungunya, dengue and Zika viruses. Alternative control measurements of the vector are needed to overcome the problems of environmental contamination and chemical ...

Phylogenetic Evidence for the Taxonomic Heterogeneity of Photorhabdus luminescens [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1997
The sequences of the 16S rRNA gene of 40 strains of bacterial symbionts isolated from the nematodes Heterorhabditis spp. and seven bacterial symbionts of the nematodes Steinernema spp. which were isolated from different geographical areas, as well as the type strain of Xenorhabdus japonicus, were determined and compared to each other and to the ...

The genome sequence of the entomopathogenic bacterium Photorhabdus luminescens [PDF]

Nature Biotechnology, 2003
Photorhabdus luminescens is a symbiont of nematodes and a broad-spectrum insect pathogen. The complete genome sequence of strain TT01 is 5,688,987 base pairs (bp) long and contains 4,839 predicted protein-coding genes. Strikingly, it encodes a large number of adhesins, toxins, hemolysins, proteases and lipases, and contains a wide array of antibiotic ...

A syringe-like injection mechanism in Photorhabdus luminescens toxins [PDF]

Nature, 2013
Photorhabdus luminescens is an insect pathogenic bacterium that is symbiotic with entomopathogenic nematodes. On invasion of insect larvae, P. luminescens is released from the nematodes and kills the insect through the action of a variety of virulence factors including large tripartite ABC-type toxin complexes (Tcs).

Diversity of Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus spp. and their symbiotic entomopathogenic nematodes from Thailand.

PLoS ONE, 2012
Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus spp. are bacterial symbionts of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs). In this study, we isolated and characterized Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus spp.
