Effect of the microbiome on pathogen susceptibility across four Drosophilidae species
Four Drosophilidae species were used to investigate how variation in the host microbiome influences susceptibility to infection. Microbial composition and abundance differed among species and treatments. The effects of microbiome manipulation on host survival were both species‐ and pathogen‐specific.

Effect of bacterial inoculation, plant genotype and developmental stage on root-associated and endophytic bacterial communities in potato (Solanum tuberosum) [PDF]
Beneficial bacteria interact with plants by colonizing the rhizosphere and roots followed by further spread through the inner tissues, resulting in endophytic colonization.

Rifampicin impregnated dacron grafts: No development of rifampicin resistance in an animal model
Rifampicin impregnated Dacron grafts have been shown to be effective at preventing vascular graft infection in different animal models. The development of resistance to rifampicin would be a major drawback to the widespread use of such a graft. We aimed to determine how readily this would occur by using a sheep animal model.Under general anaesthetic a ...
