                                "L. monocytogenes" can act as a saprophyte or a pathogen, depending on its environment.

                                "Aspergillus flavus" is found globally as a saprophyte in soils and causes disease on many important agriculture crops.

                                It favours older branches, where it feeds as a saprophyte (on dead wood) or a weak parasite (on living wood), and it causes white rot.

                                This poor ability to compete as a saprophyte in the absence of a susceptible host makes "Clavibacter" sp. known as soil invaders as opposed to soil inhabitants.

                                Little is known about how this bacterium switches between acting as a saprophyte and a pathogen; however, several noncoding RNAs are thought to be required to induce this change.
