BMC Plant Biology, 2022 Background The use of beneficial microorganisms as an alternative for pest control has gained increasing attention. The objective of this study was to screen beneficial rhizosphere bacteria with the ability to enhance tomato anti-herbivore resistance ...

Ecological feedbacks and the evolution of resistance [PDF]
Journal of Animal Ecology, 2009 Summary 1. The idea that parasites can affect host diversity is pervasive, and the possibility that parasites can increase host diversity is of particular interest. In this review, we focus on diversity in the resistance of hosts to their parasites, and on the different ways in which parasites can increase or decrease this ...

Microorganisms, 2021 One approach to combat the increasing incidence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial pathogens involves repurposing existing compounds with known safety and development pathways as new antibacterial classes with potentially novel mechanisms of action ...

The ecology and evolution of tetracycline resistance [PDF]
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1992 The use of tetracycline over the past few decades has been accompanied by a drastic increase in the frequency of tetracycline resistance in a wide range of bacterial species and genera. A diversity of resistance determinants is found in the microbial world, coding for markedly different mechanisms of resistance.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 14-3-3 proteins (regulatory protein family) are phosphate serine-binding proteins. A number of transcription factors and signaling proteins have been shown to bind to the 14-3-3 protein in plants, which plays a role in regulating their growth (seed ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView., 2023 A novel method for tracking structural changes in gels using widely accessible microcomputed tomography is presented and validated for various hydro‐, alco‐, and aerogels. The core idea of the method is to track positions of micrometer‐sized tracer particles entrapped in the gel and relate them to the density of the gel network.

Extending an eco-evolutionary understanding of biofilm-formation at the air-liquid interface to community biofilms [PDF]
, 2020 Growing bacterial populations diversify to produce a number of competing lineages. In the Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 model system, Wrinkly Spreader mutant lineages, capable of colonising the air-liquid interface of static microcosms by biofilm ...

Evidence for an ecological cost of enhanced herbicide metabolism in Lolium rigidum [PDF]
, 2009 1. In some cases, evaluation of resource competitive interactions between herbicide resistant vs. susceptible weed ecotypes provides evidence for the expression of fitness costs associated with evolved herbicide-resistant gene traits. Such fitness costs

Ecology and evolution of antimicrobial resistance in bacterial communities [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2020 Abstract Accumulating evidence suggests that the response of bacteria to antibiotics is significantly affected by the presence of other interacting microbes. These interactions are not typically accounted for when determining pathogen sensitivity to antibiotics.
