Stress Conditions Triggering Mucoid Morphotype Variation in Burkholderia Species and Effect on Virulence in Galleria mellonella and Biofilm Formation In Vitro

Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) bacteria are opportunistic pathogens causing chronic respiratory infections particularly among cystic fibrosis patients. During these chronic infections, mucoid-to-nonmucoid morphotype variation occurs, with the two morphotypes exhibiting different phenotypic prope...
