Factors influencing biocontrol of bacterial pathogens in the intestine
1987
Savage, D.C.
An authoritative technical review summarizes and discusss current knowledge and perceptions of how various ecological factors affect microbial strains colonizing gastrointestinal (GI) habitats relative to the biocontrol of intestinal pathogens in animals. Three aspects of the microbial ecology of the GI tract are discussed (viz.: potential microbial habitats in the GI tract; indigenous microorganisms colonizing given a given GI habitat ("climax communities"); and the succession of microbial climax communities. Allogenic environmental factors and autogenic factors believed to influence indigenous GI tract microorganisms are discussed in detail. Major factors functioning in the biocontrol of bacterial enteropathogens in the GI canal also are outlined.(wz)
