Non-Ionic Osmotic Stress Induces the Biosynthesis of Nodulation Factors and Affects Other Symbiotic Traits in Sinorhizobium fredii HH103
(MDPI, 2023)
Simple Summary: Rhizobia are soil proteobacteria able to establish nitrogen-fixing symbiosis with host legumes. This symbiotic interaction, which is highly important from ecological and agronomical points of view since it ...

Prevalence, Incidence, and Risk Factors for Intestinal Colonization Due to Fluoroquinolone-Resistant ST131 Escherichia coli: a Longitudinal Study in Highly Dependent, Long-Term Care Facility Residents
(American Society for Microbiology, 2022)
Escherichia coli ST131 clade C is an important driver for fluoroquinolone resistance (FQ-R). We conducted a prospective observational study in residents from two long-term care facilities (LTCFs) in Seville, Spain, in 2018. ...

Pseudomonas fluorescens F113 type VI secretion systems mediate bacterial killing and adaption to the rhizosphere microbiome
(Nature, 2021)
The genome of Pseudomonas fluorescens F113, a model rhizobacterium and a plant growth-promoting agent, encodes three putative type VI secretion systems (T6SSs); F1-, F2- and F3-T6SS. Bioinformatic analysis of the F113 T6SSs ...

The nodD1 Gene of Sinorhizobium fredii HH103 Restores Nodulation Capacity on Bean in a Rhizobium tropici CIAT 899 nodD1/nodD2 Mutant, but the Secondary Symbiotic Regulators nolR, nodD2 or syrM Prevent HH103 to Nodulate with This Legume
(MDPI, 2022)
Rhizobial NodD proteins and appropriate flavonoids induce rhizobial nodulation gene expression. In this study, we show that the nodD1 gene of Sinorhizobium fredii HH103, but not the nodD2 gene, can restore the nodulation ...

Proof‑of‑concept study to quantify changes in intestinal loads of KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in colonised patients following selective digestive decontamination with oral gentamicin
(Elsevier, 2022)
Objectives To monitor quantitatively the extent of intestinal colonisation by KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPC-Kp) in colonised patients who receive selective digestive decontamination (SDD) with oral gentamicin ...
Article
Plant holobiont interactions mediated by the type VI secretion system and the membrane vesicles: promising tools for a greener agriculture
(Wiley, 2021)
A deeper understanding of the complex relationship between plants and their microbiota is allowing researchers to appreciate a plethora of possibilities to improve crops using chemical-free alternatives based on beneficial ...

Clinical characteristics and outcome of bacteraemia caused by Enterobacter cloacae and Klebsiella aerogenes: more similarities than differences
(Elsevier, 2021)
Objectives The genus Enterobacter is a common cause of nosocomial infections. Historically, the most frequent Enterobacter species were those of Enterobacter cloacae complex and Enterobacter aerogenes. In 2019, E. ...
