The <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> bacterial microbiome influences microsporidia infection through nutrient limitation and inhibiting parasite invasion
2024-06-05
Abstract excerpt
Microsporidia are eukaryotic obligate intracellular parasites that infect most animals including humans. To understand how the microbiome can impact microsporidia infection, we tested how bacterial isolates that naturally occur with Caenorhabditis elegans influence infection by the microsporidian Nematocida parisii . Nematodes exposed to two of these bacteria, Chryseobacterium scopthalmum and Sphingobacterium...
