Expression of virulence genes in luminescent and nonluminescent isogenic vibrios and virulence towards gnotobiotic brine shrimp (Artemia franciscana) Universiteit Gent
Coordination of primary metabolism and virulence factors expression mediates the virulence of Vibrio parahaemolyticus towards cultured shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) Universiteit Gent
Infectivity and virulence of Trypanosoma (Trypanozoon) brucei for mice. IV. Dissociation of virulence and variable antigen type in relation to pleomorphism Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
Comparative genomics of Flavobacterium columnare unveils novel insights in virulence and antimicrobial resistance mechanisms Universiteit Antwerpen Universiteit Gent
This study reports the comparative analyses of four Flavobacterium columnare isolates that have different virulence and antimicrobial resistance patterns. The main research goal was to reveal new insights into possible virulence genes by comparing the genomes of bacterial isolates that could induce tissue damage and mortality versus the genome of a non-virulent isolate. The results indicated that only the genomes of the virulent isolates ...
Virulence in Trypanosoma congolense Savannah subgroup. A comparison between strains and transmission cycles Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
Trypanosoma congolense strains have been shown to differ in their virulence both between subgroups and within the Savannah subgroup between strains. This review revisits these findings and complements them with information on the virulence of T. congolense Savannah subgroup strains isolated from cattle (domestic transmission cycle) in different geographical areas and of strains isolated in protected areas where trypanotolerant wildlife species ...
Involvement of quorum sensing in the virulence of Edwardsiella tarda towards cultured marine fish Universiteit Gent
Phenotypic variation in Vibrio harveyi : virulence factors and immune response in Artemia franciscana Universiteit Gent
Phenotypic (phase) variation or phenotypic switching is defined as a process of reversible, high frequency phenotypic variation. Until now, little is known about phenotypic variation in Vibrio especially in luminous vibriosis diseases for many aquaculture species. Vibrio harveyi, a luminescent Gram-negative motile marine bacterium, is an important pathogen responsible for causing severe diseases in shrimp, finfish and molluscs leading to severe ...
