Growth characteristics of Bartonella henselae in a novel liquid medium: primary isolation, growth-phase-dependent phage induction and metabolic studies
Article Abstract:
Bartonella henselae is a medically important pathogen that causes diverse emerging diseases in human, which are sometimes life threatening, so tests were carried out, in liquid culture, to isolate this pathogen. It was found that B. henselae may catabolize amino acids to derive carbon and energy from its host but further tests are required, to come to any conclusions.

Only a few fungal species dominate highly diverse mycofloras associated with common reed
Article Abstract:
The common reed Phragmites australis was used as a model to study the diversity of plant-associated fungi and structure of the fungal community. It was found that mycofloras of vegetative organs were dominated by just a few typical fungi suggesting that competition and niche differentiation influence the composition of plant-associated fungi communities.
