Figure 2 Kumar (2026): In planta colonization experiment testing AG129 WT, AG129easI and AG129easI(pBBR1MCS3easI). Ten plants (n = 10) were used in each group of inoculations. A) Quantification of CFUs/g of root in the rhizosphere 7 days post inoculation. B) Quantification of CFUs/g of root in the endosphere 7 days post inoculation. To assess statistical significance, t-test was used. All data are presented as means ± standard error (SD). The error bars indicate standard deviations. GraphPad Prism 9.2 (GraphPad Software, Inc.) was used for statistical analysis. *P < 0.05 **P < 0.005, ***P < 0.0005, ****P < 0.00005 as indicated.

Unmasking a Silent Threat: New Insights into Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacter Species Carbapenem-resistant bacteria are a major global health concern, and Enterobacter species are increasingly problematic, especially those producing carbapenemases. These infections are particularly con...

Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacter spp. are on the rise worldwide. Barry Kreiswirth (CDI) led the CRACKLE-2 study, revealing key species, resistance genes, and global clones driving this AMR threat go.njmicrobe.org/YEOm35 #Enterobacter #AMR #Microbiology #InfectiousDiseases #PublicHealth #CDI

Surface-mediated bacteriophage defense incurs fitness tradeoffs for interbacterial antagonism | The EMBO Journal imageimageBacteria navigate tradeoffs between phage resistance and interbacterial competition. This study reveals that while LPS deficiency shields bacteria from phage infection, it heightens vulnerab...

Antibiotic-resistant bacteria can hide in human cells without alerting the immune system - new study A new study has shown for the first time how the antibiotic-resistant bacteria Enterobacter can hide in human cells without alerting the immune system.

A new study has shown for the first time how the #AntibioticResistant #bacteria Enterobacter can hide in human cells without alerting the immune system.

This discovery could help to develop new ways to treat infected patients and clear #Enterobacter infections more efficiently.
