Analysis of the role of the LH92_11085 gene of a biofilm hyper-producing Acinetobacter baumannii strain on biofilm formation and attachment to eukaryotic cells
Acinetobacter baumannii is a nosocomial pathogen that has a considerable ability to survive in the hospital environment partly due to its capacity to form biofilms. The first step in the process of establishing an infection ... -
Anticarsia gemmatalis nucleopolyhedrovirus from soybean crops in Tamaulipas, Mexico: diversity and insecticidal characteristics of individual variants and their co-occluded mixtures
In 1999, Anticarsia gemmatalis nucleopolyhedrovirus (AgMNPV) was introduced into a major soybean-growing region in Tamaulipas, Mexico, for control of its lepidopteran host, Anticarsia gemmatalis Hilbner (Lepidoptera: ... -
Genes ptz and idi, coding for cytokinin biosynthesis enzymes, are essential for tumorigenesis and in planta growth by P. syringae pv. savastanoi NCPPB 3335
The phytopathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. savastanoi elicits aerial tumors on olive plants and is also able to synthesize large amounts of auxins and cytokinins. The auxin indoleacetic acid was shown to be ... -
Genetic variability of Chrysodeixis includens nucleopolyhedrovirus (ChinNPV) and the insecticidal characteristics of selected genotypic variants
Genetic variation in baculoviruses is recognized as a key factor, not only due to the influence of such variation on pathogen transmission and virulence traits, but also because genetic variants can form the basis for novel ... -
Insecticidal traits of variants in a genotypically diverse natural isolate of anticarsia gemmatalis multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AgMNPV)
Outbreaks of Anticarsia gemmatalis (Hübner, 1818) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae), a major pest of soybean, can be controlled below economic thresholds with methods that do not involve the application of synthetic insecticides. ... -
Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. savastanoi: some like it knot
Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. savastanoi is the causal agent of olive (Olea europaea) knot disease and an unorthodox member of the P. syringae complex, causing aerial tumours instead of the foliar necroses and cankers ... -
QTL mapping of pathogenicity in Heterobasidion annosum sensu lato
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2006) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaHeterobasidion annosum (Fr.) Bref. sensu lato, casual agent of annosum root rot in conifers, is the economical most devastating forest pathogen in the northern hemisphere. A genetic linkage map of H. annosum, was ... -
Relative contributions of lipooligosaccharide inner and outer core modifications to nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae pathogenesis
Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is a frequent commensal of the human nasopharynx that causes opportunistic infection in immunocompromised individuals. Existing evidence associates lipooligosaccharide (LOS) with ... -
Role of the Omp25/Omp31 family in outer membrane properties and virulence of Brucella ovis
The genes coding for the five outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of the Omp25/Omp31 family expected to be located in the outer membrane (OM) of rough virulent Brucella ovis PA were inactivated to evaluate their role in virulence ... -
The toxic guardians: multiple toxin-antitoxin systems provide stability, avoid deletions and maintain virulence genes of Pseudomonas syringae virulence plasmids
Background: Pseudomonas syringae is a y-proteobacterium causing economically relevant diseases in practically all cultivated plants. Most isolates of this pathogen contain native plasmids collectively carrying many ...
