• Pseudomonas aeruginosa Evolutionary Adaptation and Diversification in Cystic Fibrosis Chronic Lung Infections (2016, background): “The most common pathogen in this respect is Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a highly versatile bacterium capable of causing a wide range of mostly opportunistic infections, as well as occupying a variety of environmental niches [2].”
• Assembly and Development of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm Matrix (2009, background): “can cause life-threatening infections in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and individuals with a compromised immune system [5–7].”
• Pseudomonas genomes: diverse and adaptable. (2011, background): “In humans, P. aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen capable of infecting a range of tissues and sites (Lyczak et al., 2000) and is one of the top six infectious disease threats (Talbot et al., 2006), causing serious infections in patients who are immunocompromised or whose natural defences are…”
• Pseudomonas aeruginosa: new insights into pathogenesis and host defenses. (2013, background): “aeruginosa infections are often nosocomial, and nearly all are associated with compromised host defenses such as in neutropenia, severe burns, or cystic fibrosis (CF; Table 1; Lyczak et al., 2000).”
• Isolation of soil Streptomyces as source antibiotics active against antibiotic-resistant bacteria (2008, background): “These bacteria, like Pseudomonas aeruginosa, are common environmental organisms, which act as opportunistic pathogens in clinical cases where the defense system of the patient is compromised (Lyczak et al. 2000).”
• Identification, Timing, and Signal Specificity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Quorum-Controlled Genes: a Transcriptome Analysis (2003, background): “Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen of humans, other animals, plants, and lower eukaryotes (16).”
