  1. 1. Environmental factors selecting for predation resistant and potentially pathogenic bacteria in aquatic environments

    Författare :Peter Mathisen; Agneta Andersson; Johanna Thelaus; Mats Forsman; Anders Sjöstedt; Tron Frede Thingstad; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Eutrophication; productivity; predation pressure; predation-resistant bacteria; pathogens; Francisella tularensis; adaptation; biomarker; oligotyping;

    Sammanfattning : The long history of co-existence of bacteria and their protozoan predators in aquatic environments has led to evolution of protozoa resistant bacteria (PRB). Many of these bacteria are also pathogenic to humans. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The aquatic microbial food web and occurence of predation-resistant and potentially pathogenic bacteria, such as Francisella tularensis

    Författare :Johanna Thelaus; Agneta Andersson; Mats Forsman; Farooq Azam; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bacteria; protozoa; ecology; predation; nutrient-availability; microbial food web; model; predation-resistance; Francisella; reservoir; biofilm formation; Freshwater ecology; Limnisk ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : All natural aquatic systems harbour a vast variety of microorganisms. In the aquatic microbial food web, the larger microorganisms (i.e. protozoa) feed on the smaller microorganisms (i. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Bacteria that escape predation : waterborne pathogens and their relatives

    Författare :Karolina I. A. Eriksson; Agneta Andersson; Johanna Thelaus; Jon Ahlinder; David Sundell; Klaus Jürgens; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bacterial pathogens; protozoa; predation resistance; aquatic microbiology; climate change; opportunists; humification; iron; environmental science; miljövetenskap; mikrobiologi; Microbiology;

    Sammanfattning : The hidden presence of opportunistic bacterial pathogens in the environment evokes concerns about emerging diseases, especially in the light of climate change. The co-evolution of bacteria and their predators (protozoa) has led to bacterial defence strategies of which some contribute to the ability of bacteria to cause disease. LÄS MER
