Microcolony cultivation on a soil substrate membrane system selects for previously uncultured soil bacteria.
Traditional microbiological methods of cultivation recover less than 1% of the total bacterial species, and the culturable portion of bacteria is not representative of the total phylogenetic diversity. Classical cultivation strategies are now known to supply excessive nutrients to a system and therefore select for fast-growing bacteria that are capable of colony or biofilm formation. New approa...
متن کاملLaboratory cultivation of widespread and previously uncultured soil bacteria.
Most soil bacteria belong to family-level phylogenetic groups with few or no known cultivated representatives. We cultured a collection of 350 isolates from soil by using simple solid media in petri dishes. These isolates were assigned to 60 family-level groupings in nine bacterial phyla on the basis of a comparative analysis of their 16S rRNA genes. Ninety-three (27%) of the isolates belonged ...
متن کاملCultivation of fastidious bacteria by viability staining and micromanipulation in a soil substrate membrane system.
Soil substrate membrane systems allow for microcultivation of fastidious soil bacteria as mixed microbial communities. We isolated established microcolonies from these membranes by using fluorescence viability staining and micromanipulation. This approach facilitated the recovery of diverse, novel isolates, including the recalcitrant bacterium Leifsonia xyli, a plant pathogen that has never bee...
متن کاملIsolation of methane oxidising bacteria from soil by use of a soil substrate membrane system.
Abstract A new method for isolation of methane oxidising bacteria (methanotrophs) is presented. Soil samples from a wetland area and a landfill were plated on polycarbonate membranes, which were incubated in a methane-air atmosphere using a non-sterile soil suspension as the medium. The membrane acted as a permeable growth support. The membrane method resulted in selective growth conditions, wh...
متن کاملCultivation of globally distributed soil bacteria from phylogenetic lineages previously only detected in cultivation-independent surveys.
The culturability of microorganisms in a 10 cm core of an Australian pasture soil was investigated using a minimal agar medium with xylan as the growth substrate. Culturability decreased with increasing depth, from a maximum of 19% of the total microscopically countable cells in the 0-2 cm section to 2.4% in the 8-10 cm section. Seventy-one isolates from the core were identified by comparative ...
