The phrase "a diverse host range" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing the variety of organisms or systems that a particular agent, such as a virus or a parasite, can infect or interact with.
Example: "The new strain of the virus has demonstrated a diverse host range, affecting both mammals and birds."
Alternatives: "a wide host range" or "a varied host range".
This widespread bacterium has a diverse host range, including mammals, insects, and plants [10], [11].
These organisms have a diverse host range and are mainly responsible for infections in ruminants and birds besides causing 'opportunistic' infections in immune compromised humans and in nosocomial settings.
Most P-DUDES species were mesophilic, and a minority was pathogenic with a diverse host range including humans, insects and corals.
To our knowledge, this has not been documented in flagellate protozoans extending over a diverse host range such as T. foetus.
Rickettsiae species are associated with a diverse host range that include vertebrates, arthropods, annelids, amoebae and plants and are known as arthropod-vector pathogens of vertebrate hosts [ 10, 11].
Daldinia eschscholtzii has been isolated from dead trees [ 3], marine alga [ 4], insect [ 5] and recently also from human specimens [ 6, 7], displaying the great adaptation ability of this organism in a diverse host range.
As species of Rickettsiales are associated with an extremely diverse host range, a better understanding of the historical associations between these bacteria and their hosts will provide important information on their evolutionary trajectories and, particularly, their potential emergence as pathogens.
Although it has a highly diverse host range, CMV's trimeric RNAs are each required for virus infection to be successful and are packaged into icosahedral capsids, thus enforcing a size limitation to the foreign gene that can be inserted.
Moreover, because populations of C. jejuni in farm animals such as bovids and chickens may show greater similarity than those from other hosts (5, 9 ), the approach may be more accurate when considering C. jejuni from a more diverse host range.
It is clear from Figure 1 that Rickettsia bacteria have an extremely diverse host range, occurring in arthropods, vertebrates, plants, amoebas, ciliates, annelids and hydrozoa, and that there have been numerous shifts between these hosts.
Compared with other zoonotic or vector-borne bacteria, Rickettsiales are associated with a more extremely diverse host range, including protists, hydra, annelids, arthropods, vertebrates, and even plants [ 5],[ 8],[ 15],[ 16].
