Abstract

Bacteria deploy many distinct mechanisms to resist protist predation in natural environments. In a recent study published in Cell, Zhang et al. discover a chemical radar used by the plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae to sense and kill an amoeba predator.

捕食者与猎物的相互作用：当化学对话变成致命的时候

在自然环境中，细菌利用许多独特的机制来抵抗原生生物的捕食。在最近发表在Cell杂志上的一项研究中，Zhang等人发现了植物病原体丁香假单胞菌（Pseudomonas syringae）利用一种化学雷达来感知并杀死变形虫捕食者。

期刊介绍： Cell Host & Microbe is a scientific journal that was launched in March 2007. The journal aims to provide a platform for scientists to exchange ideas and concepts related to the study of microbes and their interaction with host organisms at a molecular, cellular, and immune level. It publishes novel findings on a wide range of microorganisms including bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses. The journal focuses on the interface between the microbe and its host, whether the host is a vertebrate, invertebrate, or plant, and whether the microbe is pathogenic, non-pathogenic, or commensal. The integrated study of microbes and their interactions with each other, their host, and the cellular environment they inhabit is a unifying theme of the journal. The published work in Cell Host & Microbe is expected to be of exceptional significance within its field and also of interest to researchers in other areas. In addition to primary research articles, the journal features expert analysis, commentary, and reviews on current topics of interest in the field.
