  • Characterization of the pathogenicity and phylogeny of members of the Rhodococcus genus

    Creator:
    Creason, Allison L.
    Abstract:
    Plant pathogenic Rhodococcus species are persistent pathogens able to cause severe growth deformities on a large range of hosts. The most well studied species, R. fascians is predicted by current models to synthesize a mixture of cytokinins that act to directly perturb the hosts' hormone balances, which results in abnormal...

  • Disease models and infectious phenotypes of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis

    Creator:
    Everman, Jamie L.
    Abstract:
    Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) is the causative agent of Johne's disease, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that affects ruminant populations worldwide. The characteristic stages of the disease make diagnosis difficult, resulting in silent transmission among animals in a herd for years before proper detection of the infection. The extensive...

  • Further Understanding Mycobacterial Biofilms and Their Interaction with the Host

    Creator:
    Rose, Sasha J.
    Abstract:
    Respiratory infections caused by nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), especially Mycobacterium avium, can lead to progressive, recurrent disease that is refractory to therapy. Bacterial biofilms are intrinsically resistant to a variety of stressors and pressures, including host killing mechanisms and antibiotic therapy. Though it is becoming increasingly evident that NTM biofilms are...

  • Mechanisms for the interaction of environmental mycobacteria with host cells

    Creator:
    Harriff, Melanie J.
    Abstract:
    Environmental mycobacteria are important opportunistic pathogens for many hosts, including humans, cattle, and fish. Two well-studied species are Mycobacterium avium subsp. avium, a significant cause of disseminated bacterial disease in patients with AIDS, and Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis, the cause of Johne’s disease in cattle. Many other species that are...

  • Identification and characterization of type III effector proteins in plant-associated bacteria

    Creator:
    Thomas, William J.
    Abstract:
    Symbioses between microbes and multicellular eukaryotes are found in all biomes, and encompass a spectrum of symbiotic lifestyles that includes parasitism and disease, commensalism, and mutually beneficial interdependent host-microbe relationships. Regardless of outcome, these symbiotic lifestyles are governed by a complex molecular "courtship" between microbe and potential host. This courtship...
