Simple Summary Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are an eco-friendly
alternative to the use of chemicals in agricultural production and crop protection. However …

The bacterial flagellum is an amazingly complex molecular machine with a diversity of roles
in pathogenesis including reaching the optimal host site, colonization or invasion …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen and a model
bacterium for studying virulence and bacterial social traits. While it can be isolated in low …

Background Recently, we reported that some dairy cows could produce high amounts of
milk with high amounts of protein (defined as milk protein yield [MPY]) when a population …

Plant roots interact with an enormous diversity of commensal, mutualistic, and pathogenic
microbes, which poses a big challenge to roots to distinguish beneficial microbes from …

Plants and animals detect the presence of potential pathogens through the perception of
conserved microbial patterns by cell surface receptors. Certain solanaceous plants …

Humans, and many other species, are host to diverse symbionts. It is often suggested that
the mutual benefits of host-microbe relationships can alone explain cooperative evolution …

How pathogens coevolve with and adapt to their hosts are critical to understanding how host
jumps and/or acquisition of novel traits can lead to new disease emergences. The …

Increasing evidence shows that the chicken gastrointestinal microbiota has a major effect on
the modulation of metabolic functions and is correlated with economic parameters, such as …

Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) actively colonize the soil portion under the
influence of plant roots, called the rhizosphere. Many plant-beneficial Pseudomonas spp …
