Recent speciation of plague microbe Yersinia pestis in the heterothermal (heteroimmune) environment of marmot–flea (Marmota sibirica–Oropsylla silantiewi): Biogeocenotic preconditions and preadaptations

2017-07-01

Abstract excerpt

This article considers the molecular genetic and ecological approaches to solving the problem of the origin of the plague-causative agent microbe Yersinia pestis. The initial conditions of the conversion of the clone of saprozoobiont pseudotuberculosis microbe Yersinia pseudotuberculosis O:1b to the population of plague microbe Yersinia pestis are described. It is shown that a remote biogeocenotic precondition for...
