Abstract

All Legionella longbeachae strains, both serogroups of L. bozemanii, and three strains of L. anisa reproducibly infected washed Tetrahymena pyriformis at 30 degrees C. L. pneumophila serogroup 1 strains infected T. pyriformis less reproducibly than did L. longbeachae. Low-level concentrations of nutrients in cocultures inhibited infection. Four L. micdadei strains and L. anisa ATCC 35292 failed to infect T. pyriformis.
