Protective microbe enhances colonisation of a novel host species by modifying immune gene expression

2019-11-29

Abstract excerpt

Microbes that protect against infection inhabit hosts across the tree of life. It is unclear whether many protective microbes use or reduce the need for a host immune response, or how the immune system reacts when these microbes newly encounter a host species naturally and as part of a biocontrol strategy. We sequenced the transcriptome of a host ( Caenorhabditis elegans ) following its interaction with a non-nat...
