1. Plant Interactions:

   • Many Paraburkholderia species are known for their positive interactions with plants. Some can form symbiotic relationships with plants, assisting in nutrient uptake and promoting plant growth.

2. Opportunistic Pathogens:

   • Certain Paraburkholderia species, particularly those previously classified as Burkholderia, have been associated with opportunistic infections in humans. Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC), for example, is a group of closely related species within the Paraburkholderia genus that can cause infections, especially in individuals with compromised immune systems or underlying respiratory conditions.

3. Cystic Fibrosis:

   • BCC infections are of particular concern in individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF). Paraburkholderia species, including BCC, have been found in the respiratory tracts of individuals with CF and can contribute to respiratory infections and complications.

4. Environmental Persistence:

   • Some Paraburkholderia species, including certain strains of BCC, are known for their environmental persistence. They can survive and thrive in diverse environmental conditions, making them challenging to eradicate in healthcare settings.

5. Antibiotic Resistance:

   • Some Paraburkholderia species, like BCC, may exhibit antibiotic resistance. This can complicate treatment options and contribute to the challenges in managing infections caused by these bacteria.

Legend

• The interactions are based on data from 1000 healthy individuals using shotgun 10M reads Precision Biome, a provider in full conformity to EU regulations for health information
• The width of the lines indicates R² (the coefficient of determination)
• Green indicates positive slope
• Red indicates negative
• Interactions are not two way because incidence of each bacteria are different
