<i>Legionella pneumophila</i> and Free-Living Nematodes: Environmental Co-Occurrence and Trophic Link

<i>Legionella pneumophila</i> and Free-Living Nematodes: Environmental Co-Occurrence and Trophic Link

Free-living nematodes harbor and disseminate various soil-borne bacterial pathogens. Whether they function as vectors or environmental reservoirs for the aquatic <i>L. pneumophila</i>, the causative agent of Legionnaires’ disease, is unknown. A survey screening of biofilms of natural (sw...
