Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC): An Overview of Virulence and Pathogenesis Factors, Zoonotic Potential, and Control Strategies

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) causes colibacillosis in avian species, and recent reports have suggested APEC as a potential foodborne zoonotic pathogen.

Transposon mutagenesis reveals Pseudomonas cannabina pv. alisalensis optimizes its virulence factors for pathogenicity on different hosts [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2019
Pseudomonas cannabina pv. alisalensis (Pcal), which causes bacterial blight disease of Brassicaceae, is an economically important pathogen worldwide. To identify Pcal genes involved in pathogenesis, we conducted a screen for 1,040 individual Pcal KB211 ...

Breaking the bad: Bacillus blocks fungal virulence factors

open access: yesMicrobial Cell, 2017
Fungal pathogens rely on the production of specific virulence factors during infection. Inhibiting such factors generally results in reduced fungal pathogenicity.

Phosphorylation of CFP10 modulates Mycobacterium tuberculosis virulence

open access: yesmBio, 2023
Virulence effectors secreted by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) help subvert host immune mechanisms and, therefore, are critical for establishing infection and pathogenesis. However, knowledge in terms of signaling mechanisms that modulate the secretion

The Composition and Spatial Patterns of Bacterial Virulence Factors and Antibiotic Resistance Genes in 19 Wastewater Treatment Plants. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Bacterial pathogenicity and antibiotic resistance are of concern for environmental safety and public health. Accumulating evidence suggests that wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are as an important sink and source of pathogens and antibiotic ...
