Diseases and Management of Crops under Protected Cultivation

(Diseases and Management of Crops under Protected Cultivation)
educated guess as to the bacteria with which you are dealing. Describe size if a scale is given,
shape (coccus, rod, pleomorphic) and where bacteria are located (i.e. At microvillar tips, closelyadhered
to cell membrane / wall, intracytoplasmic and if so, within phagolysosome or free).
Pseudomonas putida under solute stress Pseudomonas putida with no stress
Examples:
Bordetella- bacteria enmeshed in tracheal cilia; animal affected may be dog, turkey,
etc.Car bacillus- bacteria enmeshed in cilia of airway, but more likely in a rat.
These Helicobacter pylori Bacteria (formerly named Campylobacter) on human stomach
epithelial cells can cause certain types of stomach ulcers and gastritis. Peptic ulcers are holes or
sores in the stomach or duodenum and most are caused by this pathogen. With antibiotics, the
infection can be cured in a few weeks. TEM X40,000
Protozoal
Be familiar with some of the terminology used in describing protozoa, such as conoid,
micronemes and rhoptries. Note whether zoites are contained within a parasitophorous vacuole or
free in the cytoplasm. If in a bradycyst, is wall thick or thin Some familiar examples include:
Giardia- elongated, attached along microvillar surface
Cryptosporidium- trophozoites attached to apical cell surface by feeder organelle, microvilli
are effaced only at the site of attachment. The trophozoites develop into schizonts.
