Description
Summary:Relevance. Specific epidemiology of sapronotic (soilborne, waterborn) bacteria is characterized from the ecological point of view. The characteristic feature of soil-borne, water-born pathogens is an ability to exist autonomously in the environment. Aims. This analytical review is focused on hydrobionts and crops as alternative hosts for several soilborne and waterborne pathogenic bacteria (Vibrio, Legionella, Yersinia, Listeria monocytogenes). Conclusions. Published experimental results evidence capabilities of human and animal pathogens to colonize protozoan and plant tissues. Novel approaches are discussed to minimize risks of infection spreading.
