Infestation bacterial

Obviously, one looks for causes. That declines in one or another species have natural factor etiologies is unequivocal. The demise of American elms and of the chestnut were due to natural factors. Insect infestations, bacterial and fungal diseases, hurricanes, floods, freezes, droughts and many other stresses can cause extensive tree death (5). But in such declines typically only a single species is affected or climatic events caused decline in a delimited area. In almost all declines caused by natural events, the causal factors can be identified we know their precise etiologies. Natural events are always part of the natural environment and must be factored in when evaluating forest declines (Table I). 

This study, probably the first of its kind anywhere in the world, illustrates very clearly the relationship between local immunity in the gut and its relationship to bacterial infection. One looks forward to additional studies along these lines, which may help to solve some of the problems of parasitic infestation in tropical and subtropical populations.

Enhanced resistance to disease in plants after an initial infection has fascinated observers for over 100 years. A review of the subject by Chester in 1933 contains 201 references (Jj. "Immunization", "acquired systemic resistance", or "induced resistance" of plants have been reviewed in recent years (2-11). We shall not exhaustively review the literature, but shall focus on general principles and phenomena of particular relevance to the use of "plant immunization" for the practical control of disease. This paper will stress examples from our own research program, but wi1i also include literature citations to provide the reader with an appreciation of important research contributions of others previously and presently active in the field. Most examples presented will deal with fungal, bacterial, or viral diseases of crop plants, but similar principles may apply to infestations by nematodes and, possibly, insects. 

Leaves with reddish hrown spots corms with pale to hrown spots. Cause Scab. This bacterial disease also causes brown spots on blossoms plants rot at the base and fall over. Spots on corms turn dark brown with sunken centers and scabby margins. Dig and destroy infested plants do not replant corms in infested soil. 

Leaves discolored and puckered or curled. Causes Leafhoppers aphids viral diseases bacterial ring rot. If leaves have yellow patches and brown edges, look for leafhoppers—tiny green or brown insects that suck plant sap and hop, scuttle sideways, or fly when disturbed. Spray with insecticidal soap or pyrethrin to control. Prevent infestations by covering plants with row cover when they come up. 

Leaves riddled with small holes. Cause Flea beetles. These small, shiny, black beetles hop when disturbed. They can transmit viral and bacterial diseases. Control severe infestations by spraying plants with pyrethrin. Prevent problems by protecting young plants with row cover. 

According to the CDC Campylobacter is the most commonly identified bacterial cause of diarrheal illness in the world. The natural habitat of these bacteria is the intestines of healthy birds and most raw poultry meat is infested with Campylobacter (Anonymous, 2005). 

Khoury et al., 1996 Locatelli et al., 1993, 2000). Pest infestation of dried fish leads to higher levels of uric acid and bacterial counts that are unacceptable to consumers and traders (Solanki, 1985). Toxicological studies revealed that excess levels of uric acid in the diet could induce hyperuricemia with associated nephropathy in rats (Starvic et al., 1969). Secretions from the adults of Tribolium spp. and Rhyzopertha dominica impart unacceptable off-odors to foodstuffs. Processing and end-use qualities of food commodities are also affected by insect infestation, as are cash value and marketability of different commodities. 

Whether particular drugs are well tolerated or not, anthelmintic therapy frequently requires adjunctive therapy. Thus allergic reactions to tissue infestation by parasites may require antihistamines, or even steroids. Iron-deficiency anemia (due to blood losses) sometimes has to be counteracted. Gastric effects have to be treated traditionally, as do any secondary bacterial infections. With some agents cathartics may be indicated to expel dead or incapacitated worms.

Veterinary drugs are used to treat animals for bacterial infections (antibiotics) and parasitic infestations (anthelmintics, coccidiostats), to enhance growth (antibiotics, anabohcs, partitioning agents, thyrostats), to control fertility and reproduction (steroid hormones), or to alter behavior (tranquillizers and sedatives). Within each of the drug types there are different classes and methods for residue analysis are typically class specific (e.g., methods for the class of tetracycline antibiotics). In certain cases, mrdtiresidue methods are available that are broader than specific classes.
