Disease-causing microbes can also be called pathogens, germs or bugs and are responsible for causing infectious diseases. Microorganisms are very diverse. They include all of the prokaryotes, namely the bacteria and archaea and various forms of eukaryotes, comprising the protozoa, fungi, algae, ...
Infectious diseases are those caused by microbial organisms called pathogens, which include bacteria, viruses, and fungi. These organisms can be transmitted from one person to another, causing the infection to spread to more people. Answer and Explanation:1 ...
They are usually grown in marginal soils, and huge losses of these precious pulses occurred due to different disease-causing microorganisms. Disease resistance in plant manifested due to specific interaction between a resistance gene product in host and an avirulence gene product in pathogen. In some...
The study of microorganisms, the most abundant living entities on Earth, aims to understand their unique biology and the influence they have on human health, disease, and life in general. Here, we highlight work that furthers our understanding of the microbial world. ...
Plants, fungi, and microorganisms are recognized as potent antiviral agents. • Drugs from natural resources as future antiviral therapy are suggested. Abstract In the current scenario, the increasing prevalence of diverse microbial infections as well as emergence and re-emergence of viral epidemics ...
(Gilligan et al., 1996; MacNish, 1996; Schneider et al., 2001). Different soil-borne pathogens cause patches of disease with different characteristics and the dynamic nature ofsoil-borne diseasesdepends on the species of microorganisms causing disease. For instance, take-all disease caused byG....
microorganisms327which could be used for immune surveillance and host defense. The NLR signaling pathway mainly has the following functions: signal transduction, inflammasome formation, gene transcription stimulation and autophagy.328,329 After an NLR recognizes bacteria-related ligands, γ-D-glutamyl-meso...
Members of the genusBrucellaare facultative intracellular pathogens causing brucellosis, a neglected zoonotic disease which was initially described in soldiers stationed in Malta. TheBrucella(B.) spp. host spectrum primarily comprises domestic animals, like small ruminants, cattle or dogs, with species-sp...
The human microbiota contains multiple symbiotic microorganisms and participates in nutrient sensing.25Thus far, bidirectional communication between the gut microbiota and the brain has been extensively found to occur through immune, circulatory and neural pathways in the so-called gut–brain axis (GBA)...
The epidemiology of the microorganisms has not changed significantly over time. Diarrhea is defined as an excessive loss of fluid and electrolytes in the stool. In newborns and infants, stool volume greater than 15 g kg−1 day−1 is considered diarrhea. By approximately 3 years of age, ...
