This study identifies Pseudomonas alcaliphila as a potential inhibitor of Legionella pneumophila growth through toxoflavin production, which also affects its host Vermamoeba vermiformis.

This study shows that Legionella pneumophila isolates from biofilms in hospital hot water systems are more tolerant to copper than those from water, due to increased copA gene expression and local adaptation.

This study investigates how temperature affects Legionella pneumophila growth in a lab-scale cooling tower, its protozoan hosts, and microbial diversity in biofilms.

The paper investigates how microbial diversity, Pseudomonas, and chlorine affect Legionella spp. presence in cooling towers, finding that chlorine reduces diversity and promotes Pseudomonas, which inhibits Legionella.
