Exploration of interspecies interactions between microorganisms can have taxonomic, ecological, evolutionary, or medical applications. To better explore it is important to establish the ideal conditions that ensure survival all species involved. In this study, we sought identify biotic and abiotic factors would result in high co-culture viability two interkingdom species, Pseudomonas aeruginosa Acanthamoeba castellanii , soil dwelling microbes. There been limited studies showing long-term...
Abstract Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a multidrug-resistant opportunistic human pathogen that can survive in many natural and anthropogenic environments. It leading cause of morbidity individuals with cystic fibrosis one the most prevalent pathogens associated nosocomial infections United States. has been shown this organism persist low nutrient environments such as sink drains inside respiratory system hosts. How adaptation to these types influences phenotypic traits not well studied. Here we...
