Abstract
ABSTRACT
The physiology of a newly recognized
Serratia
species, termed South African
Caenorhabditis briggsae
Isolate (SCBI), which is both a nematode mutualist and an insect pathogen, was investigated and compared to that of
Serratia marcescens
Db11, a broad-host-range pathogen. The two
Serratia
strains had comparable levels of virulence for
Manduca sexta
and similar cytotoxic activity patterns, but motility and lipase and hemolytic activities differed significantly between them.
