Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (S. Enteritidis) is frequently associated with food-borne disease worldwide. Poultry-derived products are a major source. An epidemic of human infection S. occurred in Uruguay, and to evaluate the extent poultry contamination, we conducted nationwide survey over 2 years that included analysis sera from 5,751 birds 12,400 eggs. Serological evidence group O:9 was found 24.4% birds. All positive were retested gm flagellum-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent...

Summary Pathogenic microbes are known to manipulate the defences of their hosts through production secreted effector proteins. More recently, mutualistic mycorrhizal fungi have also been described as using these effectors promote host colonization. Here we characterize a mycorrhiza‐induced small protein 10 kDa produced by ectomycorrhizal fungus Pisolithus albus , PaMiSSP10b. We demonstrate that PaMiSSP10b is from fungal hyphae, enters cells its host, Eucalyptus grandis, and interacts with an...

Cenococcum geophilum is an ectomycorrhizal fungus with global distribution in numerous habitats and associates a large range of host species including gymnosperm angiosperm trees. Moreover, C. the unique within clade Dothideomycetes, largest class Ascomycetes containing predominantly saprotrophic many devastating phytopathogenic fungi. Recent studies highlight that mycorrhizal fungi, as pathogenic ones, use effectors form Small Secreted Proteins (SSPs) molecular keys to promote symbiosis. In...
