Fabclavine diversity in Xenorhabdus bacteria [PDF]
The global threat of multiresistant pathogens has to be answered by the development of novel antibiotics. Established antibiotic applications are often based on so-called secondary or specialized metabolites (SMs), identified in large screening ...

Pleiotropic role of PAX cyclolipopeptides in the Xenorhabdus bacterium mutualistically associated with entomopathogenic nematodes [PDF]
Xenorhabdus is an entomopathogenic bacterium involved in a mutualistic relationship with Steinernema nematodes. Xenorhabdus produces a multitude of specialized metabolites by non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) pathways to mediate bacterium-nematode ...

Bacteria of the Genus Xenorhabdus, a Novel Source of Bioactive Compounds [PDF]
The genus Xenorhabdus of the family Enterobacteriaceae, are mutualistically associated with entomopathogenic nematodes of the genus Steinernema. Although most of the associations are species-specific, a specific Xenorhabdus sp.

Genome sequences of key bacterial symbionts of entomopathogenic nematodes: Xenorhabdus cabanillasii DSM17905, Xenorhabdus ehlersii DSM16337, Xenorhabdus japonica DSM16522, Xenorhabdus koppenhoeferii DSM18168, and Xenorhabdus mauleonii DSM17908 [PDF]
Xenorhabdus species are bacterial symbionts of entomopathogenic Steinernema nematodes, in which they produce diverse secondary metabolites implicated in pathogenesis. To expand resources for natural product prospecting and exploration of host-symbiont-pathogen relationships, the genomes of Xenorhabdus cabanillasi, Xenorhabdus ehlersii, Xenorhabdus ...

Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 Occupies Previously Undocumented Host Niches in the Insect-Parasitic Nematode Steinernema hermaphroditum. [PDF]
This study characterizes previously undocumented host tissues in Steinernema nematodes, including putative coelomocytes, intestinal compartments, and inter‐cuticular spaces colonized by Escherichia coli Nissle 1917. Our findings reveal niche‐specific microbial interactions distinct from those with native symbionts, establishing a platform for ...

Nematicidal effects of Photorhabdus- and Xenorhabdus-derived compounds against plant-parasitic nematodes: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) are major agricultural pests that cause substantial yield losses worldwide. However, developing sustainable alternatives to synthetic nematicides remains a critical challenge.

Analyses of Xenorhabdus griffiniae genomes reveal two distinct sub-species that display intra-species variation due to prophages [PDF]
Background Nematodes of the genus Steinernema and their Xenorhabdus bacterial symbionts are lethal entomopathogens that are useful in the biocontrol of insect pests, as sources of diverse natural products, and as research models for mutualism and ...

Xenorhabdus bharatensis sp. nov., Xenorhabdus entomophaga sp. nov., Xenorhabdus siamensis sp. nov., and Xenorhabdus thailandensis sp. nov. Isolated from Steinernema Entomopathogenic Nematodes. [PDF]
AbstractFour Gram-stain-negative bacterial strains, CS20T, AUT15.5T, XENO-11T, and CCN3.3T, isolated from Steinernema entomopathogenic nematodes, were found to represent novel species within the genus Xenorhabdus (Gammaproteobacteria, Morganellaceae).
