Interaction between Earthworms and Soil-Inhabiting Anthrax Microbe Spores

Studied are phenotypic and genetic properties of anthrax agent strains, isolated from earthworms retained in infected soil for a period of 20 and 30 days. Discovered is the fact that the presence of worms in the biotope reduces the number of Bacillus anthracis spores by 30-50 %. However, the rest of...

description Studied are phenotypic and genetic properties of anthrax agent strains, isolated from earthworms retained in infected soil for a period of 20 and 30 days. Discovered is the fact that the presence of worms in the biotope reduces the number of Bacillus anthracis spores by 30-50 %. However, the rest of the spores preserve original properties, and biological and genetic virulence dominants.
