Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships between Staphylococcus aureus genetic background, virulence factors, agr groups (alleles), and human disease
Sophie Jarraud,Christophe Mougel,Jean Thioulouse,Gerard Lina,Hélène Meugnier,Françoise Forey,Xavier Nesme,Jerome Etienne,François Vandenesch +8 more
TL;DR: The agr group may reflect an ancient evolutionary division of S. aureus in terms of this species’ fundamental biology, and the results do not show a direct role of the agr type in the type of human disease caused by S.Aureus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant-microbe-soil interactions in the rhizosphere: an evolutionary perspective
TL;DR: It is shown that rhizosphere processes in the long run are central to biogeochemical cycles, soil formation and Earth history, and major anticipated discoveries will enhance basic understanding and allow applications of new knowledge to deal with nutrient deficiencies, pests and diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Bacterial and Fungal Soil Communities by Automated Ribosomal Intergenic Spacer Analysis Fingerprints: Biological and Methodological Variability
L. Ranjard,Franck Poly,Jean-Christophe Lata,Christophe Mougel,Jean Thioulouse,Sylvie Nazaret +5 more
TL;DR: ARISA is a high-resolution, highly reproducible technique and is a robust method for discriminating between microbial communities and to evaluate the potential biases in community description provided by ARISA.
Journal ArticleDOI
egc, A Highly Prevalent Operon of Enterotoxin Gene, Forms a Putative Nursery of Superantigens in Staphylococcus aureus
Sophie Jarraud,Marie Alix Peyrat,Annick Lim,Anne Tristan,Michèle Bes,Christophe Mougel,Jerome Etienne,François Vandenesch,Marc Bonneville,Gerard Lina +9 more
TL;DR: RT-PCR analysis showed that all genes, including seg and sei, belong to an operon, designated theEnterotoxin gene cluster (egc), identifying egc as a putative nursery of enterotoxin genes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stimulation of Different Functional Groups of Bacteria by Various Plant Residues as a Driver of Soil Priming Effect
Noémie Pascault,Lionel Ranjard,Lionel Ranjard,Aurore Kaisermann,Dipankar Bachar,Richard Christen,Sébastien Terrat,Sébastien Terrat,Olivier Mathieu,Jean Lévêque,Christophe Mougel,Catherine Hénault,Philippe Lemanceau,Michel Pean,Séverine Boiry,Sébastien Fontaine,Pierre-Alain Maron,Pierre-Alain Maron +17 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that the succession of bacterial taxonomic groups occurring in SOM- and FOM-degrading communities during the degradation process may be an important driver of the PE, and consequently of carbon dynamics in soil is supported.
