Around 51% of Pseudomonas bacteria found in dairy processing plants are P. fluorescens, with 69% of these isolates possessing proteases, lipases, and lecithinases which contribute to degradation of milk components and subsequent spoilage. [49] Other Pseudomonas species can possess any one of the proteases, lipases, or lecithinases, or none at ...
Pseudomonas can, in rare circumstances, cause community-acquired pneumonias, [39] as well as ventilator-associated pneumonias, being one of the most common agents isolated in several studies. [40] Pyocyanin is a virulence factor of the bacteria and has been known to cause death in C. elegans by oxidative stress .
Pseudomonas syringae—more than any mineral or other organism—is responsible for the surface frost damage in plants [25] exposed to the environment. For plants without antifreeze proteins, frost damage usually occurs between −4 and −12 °C (25 and 10 °F) as the water in plant tissue can remain in a supercooled liquid state.
Burkholderia gladioli is a species of aerobic gram-negative rod-shaped bacteria [1] that causes disease in both humans and plants. It can also live in symbiosis with plants and fungi [2] and is found in soil, water, the rhizosphere, and in the microbiome of many animals. It was formerly known as Pseudomonas marginata.
Pseudomonas fluorescens is a common Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium. [1] It belongs to the Pseudomonas genus ; 16S rRNA analysis as well as phylogenomic analysis has placed P. fluorescens in the P. fluorescens group within the genus, [ 2 ] [ 3 ] to which it lends its name.
Pseudomonas oryzihabitans is a nonfermenting yellow-pigmented, gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium that can cause sepsis, peritonitis, endophthalmitis, and bacteremia. [1] It is an opportunistic pathogen of humans and warm-blooded animals that is commonly found in several environmental sources, from soil to rice paddies.
Pseudomonas infection refers to a disease caused by one of the species of the genus Pseudomonas. P. aeruginosa is a germ found in the environment and it is an opportunistic human pathogen most commonly infecting immunocompromised patients, such as those with cancer , diabetes , cystic fibrosis , [ 1 ] severe burns, AIDS , [ 2 ] or people who ...
Pseudomonas aeruginosa can cause chronic opportunistic infections that have become increasingly apparent in immunocompromised patients and the ageing population of industrialised societies. The genome sequences of several pseudomonads have become available in recent years and researchers are beginning to use the data to make new discoveries ...
