Shifts in the rhizosphere microbiome and exudation profile of avocado (Persea americana Mill.) during infection by Phytophthora cinnamomi and in presence of a biocontrol bacterial... by Frédérique Reverchon, Mariel García-Meléndez, Edgar Guevara-Avendaño, Oscar Mora-Chávez, Itzel A. Solís-García, Wesley Dáttilo, José A. Guererro-Analco, Alfonso Méndez-Bravo, Juan L. Monribot-Villanueva, Violeta Patiño-Conde, Fernando Pineda-García, Eria A. Rebollar

“…Abstract Background Rhizosphere microbiomes are fundamental for plant health, development, and productivity, but can be altered by the incidence of soil-borne pathogens. The dysbiosis (disturbance of the microbiome structure of healthy plants) caused by these pathogens, combined with the recruitment of beneficial microorganisms by the diseased plant, may cause shifts in the rhizosphere microbiome during the infection process. …”

mGBP2 engages Galectin-9 for immunity against Toxoplasma gondii. by Elisabeth Kravets, Gereon Poschmann, Sebastian Hänsch, Veronica Raba, Stefanie Weidtkamp-Peters, Daniel Degrandi, Kai Stühler, Klaus Pfeffer

“…Murine GBPs (mGBPs) recognize T. gondii PVs and assemble into supramolecular mGBP homo- and heterocomplexes that are required for the disruption of the membrane of PVs eventually resulting in the cell-autonomous immune control of vacuole-resident pathogens. We have previously shown that mGBP2 plays an important role in T. gondii immune control. …”
