This thesis describes the contribution of environmental and host genetic factors, respectively, and characteristics of the pathogen as interactive determinants of (acquisition of) typhoid and paratyphoid fever. In the words of the epidemiologist J.R. Paul (Clinical Epidemiology, i966) who, paraphrasing Matthias i3:3-8, designated the cause of infectious diseases to the triad ´the seed, the soil and the climate', herein 2atmonetta typki and 2atmonetta paratypki being “the seed”, and the host and its environment “the soil” and “the climate”, respectively, with the three together determining the ability of microbial pathogens to flourish in the population. 2. typki and 2. paratypki cause a severe systemic disease that may take weeks to recover and as such are special pathogens within the 2atmonettae that generally cause a self-limiting gastro-enteritis, or bacteremia and/or focal infection striking immuno- compromized individuals in particular. Moreover, 2. typki is unique in being strict
