Virulence and pathogen multiplication: a serial passage experiment in the hypervirulent bacterial insect-pathogen Xenorhabdus nematophila. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The trade-off hypothesis proposes that the evolution of pathogens' virulence is shaped by a link between virulence and contagiousness. This link is often assumed to come from the fact that pathogens are contagious only if they can reach high parasitic ...

A Non-luminescent Strain of Xenorhabdus luminescens (Enterobacteriaceae) [PDF]
Microbiology, 1986 Summary: The first case of a non-luminescent symbiont of a Heterorhabditis sp. is reported. The bacterium, isolated from a previously unknown species of Heterorhabditis, was identified as a biovar of Xenorhabdus luminescens. Ultrastructural study of the bacterium revealed membranous and crystalline inclusions comparable with those of luminescent ...

Jurnal Entomologi Indonesia, 2017 Local isolates of entomopathogenic nematodes are symbiotically associated with bacteria of the genus Xenorhabdus or Photorhabdus. Symbiont bacteria isolated from local isolates of entomopathogenic nematode (Pujon, Cemoro Lawang and X.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 The importance of Xenorhabdus and Photorhabdus symbionts to their respective Steinernema and Heterorhabditis nematode hosts is that they not only contribute to their entomopathogenicity but also to their fecundity through the production of small ...

Plasmids and phase variation in Xenorhabdus spp [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1991 Three strains of Xenorhabdus nematophilus (A24, F1, NC116) and strain Dan of Xenorhabdus bovienii were tested to evaluate whether the phase variation observed in these bacteria was in any way connected with plasmids. The plasmid patterns of both phases of A24 and F1 strains were the same, whereas the two NC116 phases had only one band each.

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Entomopathogenic nematodes of the genus Steinernema have a mutualistic relationship with bacteria of the genus Xenorhabdus and together they form an antagonist partnership against their insect hosts. The nematodes (third-stage infective juveniles, or IJs)

Bioluminescence of the insect pathogen Xenorhabdus luminescens [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1989 Luminescence of batch cultures of Xenorhabdus luminescens was maximal when cultures approached stationary phase; the onset of in vivo luminescence coincided with a burst of synthesis of bacterial luciferase, the enzyme responsible for luminescence.

Characterization of form variants of Xenorhabdus luminescens [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1992 From Xenorhabdus luminescens XE-87.3 four variants were isolated. One, which produced a red pigment and antibiotics, was luminescent, and could take up dye from culture media, was considered the primary form (XE-red). A pink-pigmented variant (XE-pink) differed from the primary form only in pigmentation and uptake of dye. Of the two other variants, one
