“…Furthermore, they likely serve an important ecological function, as they were especially active against environmental pathogenic strains, such as Vibrio mediterranei and Aurantimonas coralicida, which have been implicated in several diseases of marine organisms [60,61]. In addition, pathogenic bacteria Pantoea eucrina and Rhodococcus corynebacterioides infections have been reported in humans [62,63].…”

Two known Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDEs), 3,4,5-tribromo-2-(2′,4′-dibromophenoxy)phenol (1d) and 3,4,5,6-tetrabromo-2-(2′,4′-dibromophenoxy)phenol (2b), were isolated from the Indonesian marine sponge Lamellodysidea herbacea. The structure was confirmed using 13C chemical shift average deviation and was compared to the predicted structures and recorded chemical shifts in previous studies. We found a wide range of bioactivities from the organic crude extract, such as (1) a strong deterrence against the generalist pufferfish Canthigaster solandri, (2) potent inhibition against environmental and human pathogenic bacterial and fungal strains, and (3) the inhibition of the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV). The addition of a bromine atom into the A-ring of compound 2b resulted in higher fish feeding deterrence compared to compound 1d. On the contrary, compound 2b showed only more potent inhibition against the Gram-negative bacteria Rhodotorula glutinis (MIC 2.1 μg/mL), while compound 1d showed more powerful inhibition against the other human pathogenic bacteria and fungi. The first report of a chemical defense by compounds 1d and 2b against fish feeding and environmental relevant bacteria, especially pathogenic bacteria, might be one reason for the widespread occurrence of the shallow water sponge Lamellodysidea herbacea in Indonesia and the Indo-Pacific.

“…The symptoms are inflammation or synovium of the joints, inflammation inside the eyeball, of the periosteum, of endocardium (the lining of the heart cavity), and of bones and bone marrow (Cruz et al 2007). Another important reason for clinical infection by P. agglomerans may be contact of hospitalized people with contaminated medical equipment, such as intravenous catheters or various types of fluids (Lotte et al 2019). Some authors believe that although human infections with this bacterium are rare, they can cause serious illness and even mortality, especially in young patients with comorbidities (Büyükcam et al 2018).…”

Adaptation of plant and human pathogenic bacteria to niches of existence differing from their original ones is a sophisticated mechanism for survival. Research indicates that certain plant bacterial pathogens are capable of causing disease in humans, and some human bacterial pathogens can inhabit the plant environment and cause disease in plants. The infection of humans by plant bacteria may occur at direct physical contact with diseased plants and/or via the respiratory tract in mainly immunocompromised or otherwise stressed individuals. Indirect transmitters of plant and human microbes can be wind, rain, dust, insects, and animals. Human pathogenic bacteria may contaminate the soil and irrigation water, colonize the rhizosphere, more rarely also the phyllosphere, and can survive as epiphytes. Thus, the plant environment may become a reservoir of human pathogens. A source of foodborne human pathogenic bacteria can be unprocessed or unwashed fruits and vegetables. Especially during the last decade, the processes underlying the cross-kingdom performance of pathogenic bacteria are intensively researched. However, in reality, the risk for human health at infections by plant bacteria and by human bacterial pathogens surviving in the plant environment is still underestimated. The goal of the current review is to increase the interest in these issues in agricultural and general environments. Some basic strategies for infection and symptoms of diseases caused by the microorganisms under consideration are described. The potency of certain plant bacterial pathogens to surpass barriers towards humans and the interaction of human bacterial pathogens with the plant environment are addressed and the existing information is critically discussed.

“…P. ananatis causes severe loss of pineapple, corn, rice, onion, and eucalyptus in plant hosts, and can cause bacteremia in humans [11,12]. P. dispersa and P. eucrina can cause diseases in plant hosts (rice and cotton) as well as bacteremia in humans [13][14][15][16]. In addition, the widely studied P. agglomerans have a greater pathogenic ability to infect a wide range of hosts in plants, animals, and humans [17].…”

Alfalfa is widely grown worldwide for its excellent nutritional value. Pantoea species living in alfalfa seeds can easily spread over great distances with frequent trade. However, the pathogenic properties of this dangerous hitchhiker on alfalfa have not been evaluated. Here, we identified the taxonomic status of Pantoea strain CQ10 isolated from the interior of alfalfa seeds based on the whole genome sequence. The diverse virulence attributes of strain CQ10 during host infection were characterized through pathogenicity assays and functional and genomic analyses. We report that strain CQ10 belongs to a novel species in the genus Pantoea, which was phylogenetically close to Pantoea vagans and Pantoea agglomerans. Strain CQ10 caused bacterial leaf blight of alfalfa after inoculation from the roots. We found that strain CQ10 possesses a large number of pathogenic genes involved in shaping the virulence properties during bacteria–host interactions, including motility, biofilm, type VI secretion system, and nutrient acquisition. Compared with P. vagans and P. agglomerans, the unique virulence factors of strain CQ10 were mainly involved in motility and biofilm, which were confirmed by in vitro experiments. Taken together, our results suggest that strain CQ10 is the first Pantoea species to infect alfalfa, and it possesses diverse virulence attributes among which motility and biofilm may be the best weapons.
