title: [From persistence to symbiosis of microorganisms].
abstract: Primary results of study of problem of microorganism persistence over the last 2 decades on 7 all-Russian conferences in Orenburg are examined in the article. Milestones of both fundamental research and practically significant studies are designated, the role of persistent potential of microorganisms in infectious pathology is evaluated. The emerging turn of studies from persistence to symbiosis is consonant with the idea of international project "Human microbiom" and allows to use the persistent potential of microorganisms as one of the instruments of resolving issues of infectology.
