This study was carried out to determine the antifungal effects of the supernatant produced by the bacterium Xenorhabdus szentirmaii, which is associated with soil-inhabiting entomopathogenic nematodes, on important plant pathogenic fungi, Fusarium ...

Transformation of Xenorhabdus nematophilus [PDF]
The ability of Xenorhabdus nematophilus 19061/1 to be transformed by pHK17 plasmid DNA was studied and optimized. A number of factors, including culture conditions, stage of growth, transformation buffer pH, cation type and concentration required for the production of competency, washing, heat shock conditions, and cell-DNA ratio, were found to affect ...

Lysogeny and bacteriocinogeny in Xenorhabdus nematophilus and other Xenorhabdus spp [PDF]
Induction by mitomycin or high-temperature treatment resulted in the production of bacteriocins and phages in both phases of Xenorhabdus nematophilus A24, indicating lysogeny. Phage DNA purified from X. nematophilus A24 hybridized to several fragments of DraI-digested A24 chromosomal DNA, confirming that the phage genome was incorporated into the ...

AbstractThree bacterial strains, XENO-2T, XENO-7T, and XENO-10T, isolated fromSteinernemaentomopathogenic nematodes, were found to represent novelXenorhabdusspecies. In this study, we describe these new species by whole-genome and whole-proteome phylogenomic reconstructions, by calculating sequence identity scores using core genome sequences, and by ...

Uncovering Nematicidal Natural Products from Xenorhabdus Bacteria [PDF]
Parasitic nematodes infect different species of animals and plants. Root-knot nematodes are members of the genus Meloidogyne, which is distributed worldwide and parasitizes numerous plants, including vegetables, fruits, and crops. To reduce the global burden of nematode infections, only a few chemical therapeutic classes are currently available.

Three entomopathogenic nematode populations were isolated from agricultural fields in the Anantnag district of Jammu and Kashmir (India). Sequences of multiple gene regions and phenotypic features show that they are conspecific and represent a novel ...

Photorhabdus and Xenorhabdus are the bacterial symbionts of insect pathogenic nematodes, Heterorhabditis and Steinernema, respectively. This study aims to characterize the bacterial symbionts from Mizoram, North-east India and to evaluate their ...

ABSTRACT 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 ...

Cytotoxic Fatty Acid Amides from Xenorhabdus [PDF]
by X. doucetiae revealed the presence of several similar amide derivatives. Unfortunately, most of these compounds are only produced in very small amounts but they could be easily synthesised. Thus, we tried to elucidate their structure without actually isolating them by following their chemical synthesis in order to obtain enough for bioactivity ...
