- Evidence in the Legionella pneumophila genome for exploitation of host cell functions and high genome plasticity (2004, background): “Legionella has been detected by culture in 40%, and by PCR in up to 80%, of freshwater environments, where it is known to survive and to replicate intracellularly in free-living protozoa, often within aquatic biofilm”
