A dark-green-pigmented marine bacterium, previously designated D2, which produces
components that are inhibitory to common marine fouling organisms has been characterized …

During a global research expedition, more than five hundred marine bacterial strains
capable of inhibiting the growth of pathogenic bacteria were collected. The purpose of the …

Non-differentiating bacteria adapt to starvation induced growth arrest by a complex turn-
on/turn-off pattern of protein synthesis. This response shows distinct similarities with those of …

Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on cells grown on abiotic or agar surfaces. It is
generally accepted that immersion of a clean substratum in natural liquids is immediately …

On a global research expedition, over 500 bacterial strains inhibitory towards pathogenic
bacteria were isolated. Three hundred of the antibacterial strains were assigned to the …

Carbon starvation induces the development of a starvation-and stress-resistant cell state in
marine Vibrio sp. strain S14 (CCUG 15956). The starved cells remain highly responsive to …

A set of vectors containing a mutated gfp gene was constructed for use with Gram-negative
bacteria other than Escherichia coli. These constructs were: pTn 3gfp for making random …

Plasmid transfer of broad-host-range plasmid RP1 from marine Vibrio sp. strain S14 to
marine strain SW5 under optimum conditions on the surface of nutrient plates was improved …

The effects of surfaces on the physiology of bacteria adhering to surfaces or immobilized
within biofilms are receiving more interest. A study of the effects of hydrophobic and …

Four strains of aerobic, Gram-negative rods, motile by means of a single polar flagellum, that
produced phenolic anti-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) substances and …
