Caenorhabditis elegans: a model genetic host to study Pseudomonas aeruginosa pathogenesis

M W Tan et al. Curr Opin Microbiol. 2000 Feb.

Abstract

In the past year, a Caenorhabditis elegans-Pseudomonas aeruginosa pathogenesis model has been developed to facilitate the systematic dissection of both host and pathogen genes involved in pathogenic interactions. Analysis of the P. aeruginosa-C. elegans interaction should shed light on the larger question of how organisms interact at the molecular level in antagonistic relationships.
