<jats:p>The Gram-negative bacterium<jats:named-content content-type="genus-species">Yersinia pestis</jats:named-content>is responsible for deadly plague, a zoonotic disease established in stable foci in the Americas, Africa, and Eurasia. Its persistence in the environment relies on the subtle balance between<jats:named-content content-type="genus-species">Y. pestis</jats:named-content>-contaminated soils, burrowing and nonburrowing mammals exhibiting variable degrees of plague susceptibility, and their associated fleas. Transmission from one host to another relies mainly on infected flea bites, inducing typical painful, enlarged lymph nodes referred to as buboes, followed by septicemic dissemination of the pathogen.</jats:p>
