Modern concepts of the mechanisms associated with the pathogenicity of <i>Yersinia pseudotuberculosis</i>, the causative agent of far east scarlet-like fever
The review presents the history and modern achievements in studying the fundamental and applied microbiological aspects of the causative agent of Far East scarlet- like fever, concerning the initial stages of the interaction of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis with ecto- and endothermic animals and plants. Prospects for future research are outlined (summary). The results of further in-depth studies in these areas will contribute to an understanding of the dialogue among the members of biocenoses, will justify the role of pathogenicity factors of the causative agents of sapronoses, which they produce outside the organism in the environment, in mechanisms of relative equilibrium and ecosystem stability.
