Endophytic Bacteria Consortia as Biocontrol Against Brown Spot Disease (Helminthosporium oryzae) and Growth Promotion in Rice

Jurnal Proteksi Tanaman
The brown spot disease (BSD) caused by Helminthosporium oryzae in rice can lead to yield losses of up to 45 %. Using endophytic bacterial consortia as a biological agent is one of the most potential control methods for resisting the disease.

Bactericidal action of positive and negative ions in air [PDF]

, 2007
In recent years there has been renewed interest in the use of air ionisers to control of the spread of airborne infection. One characteristic of air ions which has been widely reported is their apparent biocidal action.

Clinical study of an outbreak of postoperative mediastinitis caused by Serratia marcescens in adult cardiac surgery.

Interactive Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2020
OBJECTIVES Nosocomial infection caused by Serratia marcescens after cardiac surgery is rare but causes high rates of morbidity and mortality. Knowledge about postoperative mediastinitis due to S. marcescens is limited.

Serratia marcescens ShlA Pore-Forming Toxin Is Responsible for Early Induction of Autophagy in Host Cells and Is Transcriptionally Regulated by RcsB [PDF]

, 2014
Serratia marcescens is a Gram-negative bacterium that thrives in a wide variety of ambient niches and interacts with an ample range of hosts. As an opportunistic human pathogen, it has increased its clinical incidence in recent years, being responsible ...

Serratia marcescens is able to survive and proliferate in autophagic-like vacuoles inside non-phagocytic cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Serratia marcescens is an opportunistic human pathogen that represents a growing problem for public health, particularly in hospitalized or immunocompromised patients. However, little is known about factors and mechanisms that contribute to S. marcescens

A Serratia marcescens PigP Homolog Controls Prodigiosin Biosynthesis, Swarming Motility and Hemolysis and Is Regulated by cAMP-CRP and HexS [PDF]

, 2013
Swarming motility and hemolysis are virulence-associated determinants for a wide array of pathogenic bacteria. The broad host-range opportunistic pathogen Serratia marcescens produces serratamolide, a small cyclic amino-lipid, that promotes swarming ...

A Gut Symbiotic Bacterium Serratia marcescens Renders Mosquito Resistance to Plasmodium Infection Through Activation of Mosquito Immune Responses

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The malaria development in the mosquito midgut is a complex process that results in considerable parasite losses. The mosquito gut microbiota influences the outcome of pathogen infection in mosquitoes, but the underlying mechanisms through which gut ...

Inhibition Mechanism of Water-Soluble Chitosan–Curdlan Composite Coating on the Postharvest Pathogens of Serratia marcescens and Pseudomonas syringae in Cherry Tomatoes

Microorganisms
Cherry tomatoes, a very popular fruit, are highly susceptible to microbial infestation, which cause significant economic losses. In order to preserve cherry tomatoes better, we treat them with a Chitosan (CTS) and Curdlan (CUR) composite coating.
