Agricultural use of Burkholderia (Pseudomonas) cepacia: a threat to human health?

Emerging infectious diseases - 1 Jan 2000

Holmes A, Govan J, Goldstein R

Abstract excerpt

In the past 2 decades, Burkholderia cepacia has emerged as a human pathogen causing numerous outbreaks, particularly among cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. One highly transmissible strain has spread across North America and Britain, and another between hospitalized CF and non-CF patients. Meanwhile, the organism has been developed as a biopesticide for protecting crops against fungal diseases and has potential as a...
