The Firmicutes (e.g. heliobacteria) are Gram-positive anaerobes that prefer high light environments, use light energy to fix nitrogen and grow on organic compounds. They are often found in rice fields. Candidatus, belonging to the Acidobacteria, is thought to be aerobic, contains chlorosomes ...
We studied the effect of Burkholderia on the composting of T. grandis branch and leaf waste, and the results showed that the addition of Burkholderia changed the microbial community and metabolites of the compost. Based on the significant nitrogen fixation of phosphate additives in composting, schola...
suggesting that very large numbers of bacteria can cause clinical infection via the same route and stimulate preterm labor. With regard to transfer of bacteria across placenta, we are mindful of the limitation of the animal model that the sheep placenta has a different structure than the human or...
avenae has emerged as a disease of upland rice in Southern Europe during periods of high temperatures and B. gladioli has emerged as a serious pathogen of orchids in Thailand. B. andropogonis has been identified for the first time on jojoba in eastern Australia; the plant grows under very ...
or less. In the event that any sour dough yeast (a component of the original source material) grows out on the plate, it can be readily distinguished from the bacteria in the following ways: The sour dough yeast colonies will be present in small number--about 1/50 to 1/100 the number...
producers that could have biotechnological uses. Over the last years, the increasing number of reports of geosmin occurrence in freshwaters states them as significant contributors for the production of this organic volatile compound in this environment. Likely, the increasing reports on terrestrial ...
[1]. In vegetables,L. mesenteroidesgrows rapidly and produces carbon dioxide and acids that quickly lower the pH, thereby inhibiting the development of undesirable microorganisms and the activity of their enzymes as well as preventing unfavorable softening of the vegetables. The carbon dioxide produced...
Kelsey Campbell-Dollaghan inGizmododescribed their work as "awearabletechnology that grows in a dish, rather than a factory."Wiredsimilarly said the investigation focus is on "how we can grow actuators that control the interfaces around us instead of manufacturing them in afactory." ...
While bottom-up assembly of macroscopic ELMs with a de novo matrix would offer the greatest control over material properties, we lack the ability to genetically encode a protein matrix that leads to collective self-organization. Here we report growth of ELMs from Caulobacter crescentus cells that ...
which consist mainly of phytic and oxalic acids, can select and sustain bacterial growth as well as helpP. vittatamobilize As19. Indeed Yang et al.20showed that the isolatedPseudomonas vancouverensis,which is able to increase As-accumulation ofP. vittata, grows better in the presence ofPterisroo...
