Metabolomics uses advanced analytical chemistry techniques to enable the high-throughput
characterization of metabolites from cells, organs, tissues, or biofluids. The rapid growth in …

The aerial portion of a plant, namely the leaf, is inhabited by pathogenic and non-pathogenic
microbes. The leaf's physical and chemical properties, combined with fluctuating and often …

Studies on biofilm related infections are gaining prominence owing to their involvement in
majority of clinical infections. Biofilm, considered as a generic mechanism for survival used …

Acute infections caused by pathogenic bacteria have been studied extensively for well over
100 years. These infections killed millions of people in previous centuries, but they have …

The emergence of multidrug resistance has become an alarming and lifethreatening
phenomenon for humans. Various mechanisms are involved in the development of …

Many bacteria are known to regulate their cooperative activities and physiological processes
through a mechanism called quorum sensing (QS), in which bacterial cells communicate …

Most natural environments harbour a stunningly diverse collection of microbial species. In
these communities, bacteria compete with their neighbours for space and resources …

Most of the research on bacterial pathogenesis has focused on acute infections, but much
less is known about the pathogenesis of infections caused by bacteria that grow as …

Research on how bacteria adapt to changing environments underlies the contemporary
biological understanding of signal transduction (ST), and ST provides the foundation of the …

Microorganisms are found everywhere, and they are closely associated with plants.
Because the establishment of any plant–microbe association involves chemical …
