ENGINEERING PHAGE HOST RANGE PROMISCUITY
… spikes or tail fibres to recognise their cognate host receptors when adsorbing to bacteria. This adsorption step is crucial for the infection process; correspondingly, it is also a key factor dictating host range specificity. Viunalikeviruses are lytic-tailed phages with dsDNA genomes of ~150 kbp …

A Genetic Analysis of the Salmonella Typhi Host Range
… transduction remain unable to expand the host range of S. typhi to include mice. However, construction of genetic hybrids is useful for identifying linkage discontinuities between these species that are undetectable by other techniques.

The Role of Phytophthora Secreted Effectors in Determining Pathogen Host Range
… I set out to investigate the nature of nonhost resistance responses of Nicotianae sylvestris against Phytophthora capsici and P. infestans. Schulze-Lefert and Panstruga (2011) proposed that the inability of a pathogen to establish infection in nonhost plants could be a feature of the …

Genomic insights into the host range and interspecies transmission dynamics of Staphylococcus aureus
… important human bacterial pathogen with a wide host range, including livestock, companion, and wild animal species. Genomic and epidemiological studies show that S. aureus can freely transmit between different species, with some of these transmissions resulting in successful adaptation and …

An investigation of the replication of the broad-host-range plasmid pTF-FC2
Plasmid pTF-FC2, a 12.4 kilobase pairs (kb) cryptic plasmid, was originally isolated from the acidophilic chemoautotroph Thiobacillus ferrooxidans and subsequently cloned into the pMB1-based vector, pBR325. Deletion of the pBR325 origin of replication revealed that pTF-FC2 was able to replicate …

An investigation into the partition functions of the broad-host-range Plasmid pTF-FC2
The broad-host-range Thiobacillus ferrooxidans plasmid pTF-FC2 is stably inherited over many generations despite a low copy number. The pas genes which lie between the repB primase and the repA helicase encode a proteic plasmid stabilisation system and are capable of stabilising the unstable …

Studies on the host range and chemical control of fungi associated with diseased tropical fish
… than <u>Pythium</u> sp. No indications of host specificity were evident. All chemicals tested (Table 4) showed definite fungicidal abilities. No effective fungicidal concentration of the chemicals tested would permit sustained fish culturing. Malachite green was the most effective fungicide …

Phage host range and definition of genes implicated in Type III toxin-antitoxin-mediated abortive infection
… the bacteriophages (phages) and have evolved a range of anti-phage systems to defend themselves. One of these systems is termed abortive infection (Abi) where, upon phage infection, an Abi system may be activated which initiate a bacteriostatic or bactericidal response. While the infected …

The use of the broad-host-range plasmid, pTF-FC2, in Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated plant transformation
The transfer of T-DNA from Agrobacterium tumefaciens to eukaryotic cells is on of the most extensively studied examples of interkingdom DNA transfer. This transfer system has revolutionized plant molecular biology to the extent that the introduction of foreign genes into plant genomes is now a …

Host range of Septoria glycines, quantification of partial resistance, and brown spot evaluation of soybeans regenerated from calli
… disease distributed throughout the world. The host range of S. glycines, partial resistance to brown spot in soybean, and brown spot and yield evaluation of soybeans regenerated from calli resistant to a pathotoxin produced by S. glycines were studied.

Using the Bacterial Plant Pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato as a Model to Study the Evolution and Mechanisms of Host Range and Virulence
… of Pseudomonas syringae strains with different host ranges while still closely related were thus chosen for comparative study. We confirmed their close phylogenetic relationship. We found evidence supporting that these strains recombined during evolution. The Arabidopsis thaliana and tomato …
