Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background</bold>: <italic>Xenorhabdus</italic> and <italic>Photorhabdus</italic> are entomopathogenic bacteria that cause septicemia and toxemia in insects. They produce secondary metabolites to induce host immunosuppression. Their metabolite compositions vary among bacterial species. Little is known about the relationship between metabolite compositions and the bacterial pathoge...
