Open AccessFlavescence dorée phytoplasma enters insect cells by a clathrin-mediated endocytosis allowing infection of its insect vector
To perform its propagative and circulative cycle into its insect vector, the flavescence dorée phytoplasma invades different cell types. Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is used by a wide range of bacteria to inf...

Open AccessInteractions between the flavescence dorée phytoplasma and its insect vector indicate lectin-type adhesion mediated by the adhesin VmpA
The flavescence dorée phytoplasma undergoes a propagative cycle in its insect vectors by first interacting with the insect cell surfaces, primarily in the midgut lumen and subsequently in the salivary glands. ...

Open AccessMolecular characterization of Coxiella burnetii isolates by infrequent restriction site-PCR and MLVA ty**
Coxiella burnetii, the causative agent of Q fever, has a wide host range. Few epidemiological tools are available, and they are often expensive or not easily standardized across laboratories. In this work, C. bur...
