[The content of mimicry antigens in bacteria of the genus Klebsiella when they are cultured in plant tissue].
Bacteria of genus Klebsiella were found to possess group-specific antigens of ABO system. Representatives of conditionally pathogenic species, K. rhinoscleromatis, K. pneumoniae, K. ozaenae, K. oxytoca, contain 9.4 to 38% of the antigens. In the process of interaction of plant organisms and Klebsiella, which passed three times in green tomato fruits, the latter have been found to influence some biological features of the bacteria which is manifested in the loss of the mimicry antigens by a considerable part of the strains as well as in developing capsules by some capsule-free variants of klebsiellae.
