Fruits as the vehicle of drug
resistant pathogenic yeasts
It is important to be aware of the existence of pathogenic yeasts, especially drug resistant
ones, on the fruit surfaces, a potential route for pathogenic yeasts to be transmitted to humans.
Pathogenic bacteria are given resistance to antibiotics derived from two things
by means of vertical transmission and horizontal transmission.
Vertical transmission
In the process of genetic change during the natural process of genome duplication.
Horizontal transmission
In the horizontal transmission occurs the transfer of genes from bacteria that have mutations become
resistant (on vertical transmission).
