Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic human pathogen that colonizes the lungs of
cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. CF lungs often contain a diverse range of P. aeruginosa …

The rise of next generation sequencing is revealing a hidden diversity of temperate phages
within the microbial community. While a handful of these phages have been well …

The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa is able to thrive in diverse ecological
niches and to cause serious human infection. P. aeruginosa environmental strains are …

Background During chronic lung infections of cystic fibrosis patients Pseudomonas
aeruginosa populations undergo extensive evolutionary diversification. However, the …

Chronic infection of the cystic fibrosis (CF) airway by the opportunistic pathogen
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality for adult CF …

Temperate phages drive genomic diversification in bacterial pathogens. Phage-derived
sequences are more common in pathogenic than nonpathogenic taxa and are associated …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major pathogen in the lungs of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients.
However, it is now recognised that a diverse microbial community exists in the airways …

Background Pseudomonas aeruginosa causes lung infections in patients suffering from the
genetic disorder Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Once a chronic lung infection is established, P …

The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa chronically infects the lower airways
of patients with cystic fibrosis. Throughout the course of infection this organism undergoes …

The ability to establish lifelong persistent infections is a fundamental aspect of the
interactions between many pathogenic microorganisms and their mammalian hosts. One …
