Interaction between host genotype and environmental conditions affects bacterial density in Wolbachia symbiosis.
Regulation of microbial population density is a necessity in stable symbiotic interactions. In Wolbachia symbiosis, both bacterial and host genotypes are involved in density regulation, but environmental factors may also affect bacterial population density. Here, we studied the interaction between three strains of Wolbachia in two divergent homozygous lines of the wasp Leptopilina heterotoma at...
متن کاملBacterial Surface Motility: Slime Trails, Grappling Hooks and Nozzles
It has been known for decades that bacteria locomote over surfaces, but the mechanisms that power motility have been unclear. Recent experiments have begun to explain two modes of surface motility. Twitching or social gliding motility is powered by the retraction of type IV pili. Adventurous gliding motility is powered by the rearward secretion of carbohydrate slime. In both cases, cell movemen...
متن کاملBacterial swimming motility enhances cell deposition and surface coverage.
The influence of bacterial motility on cell transport and deposition was investigated in a well-characterized radial stagnation point flow (RSPF) chamber. Deposition experiments were conducted with nonmotile (PA01 deltafliC deltapilA) and motile (PA01 deltapilA) strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and oppositely (positively) charged modified quartz surfaces. Deposition dynamics ofthe two bacteri...
متن کاملPreparation, Imaging, and Quantification of Bacterial Surface Motility Assays
Bacterial surface motility, such as swarming, is commonly examined in the laboratory using plate assays that necessitate specific concentrations of agar and sometimes inclusion of specific nutrients in the growth medium. The preparation of such explicit media and surface growth conditions serves to provide the favorable conditions that allow not just bacterial growth but coordinated motility of...
متن کاملthe effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)
cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
