Growth and survival of Azospirillum brasilense and Arthrobacter giacomelloi in binary continuous culture

Abstract: Slightly lower values of viability were obtained in mixed culture, but the ratio between the microorganisms was constant. The survival ofArth, giacomelloi in single culture decreased with increasing growth rate while survNal of Azo. brasilense was directly related to dilution rate.Acetylene reduction activity was generally very low in both single and mixed cultures. Respiration rate was also determined and the mixed culture showed an oxygen uptake rate higher than that of single cultures.

“…Although a number of models have been proposed for the study of the biogeochemical cycle of nitrogen [49][50][51][52][53][54][55], studies of the dynamics of nitrogen-fixing populations have not been published. Only some interactions between Azospirillum and other microorganisms have been previously studied using specific experimental systems [4,56,57]. Experimental studies regarding prey-predator interactions showed that nitrogen fixing bacteria (as well as other Gram negative species) are prey for several important soil predators such as Bdellovibrio and related organisms and protozoa [14][15][16][17][18].…”

“…Competitive interactions are often established between microbial populations, since many nutrients are found in limited concentrations in common habitats [4]. However, under certain conditions the presence of antagonistic populations could relieve the growth environment from certain inhibitors, such as ammonium nitrogen.…”

“…Οι αλλαγές αυτές εξαρτώνται σε μεγάλο βαθμό από τις αλληλεπιδράσεις που προκύπτουν μεταξύ οργανισμών, από τα είδη των οργανισμών και από την αρχική σύνθεση της κοινότητας (του εμβολίου) (Morgan et al, 2005). Οι συμβιωτικοί μικροοργανισμοί μπορεί να αναπτύσσουν σχέσεις αμοιβαιότητας ή ομοσιτισμού ή παρασιτικές ανάλογα με τις συνθήκες που επικρατούν (Redman et al, 2001 (Cacciari et al, 1986;Kloss et al, 1986 (Rønn et al, 2001). Όμοια μελέτες που έγιναν σε Βdellovibrios και σε συγγενή αυτών είδη (Davidov et al, 2006), οι οποίοι αποτελούν σημαντικούς θηρευτές των αζωτοδεσμευτικών πληθυσμών (Germida, 1987) έδειξαν ότι δεν επιλέγουν τυχαία τα θηράματα τους αλλά επιτίθενται πιο εύκολα σε ορισμένα από αυτά (Rogosky et al, 2006…”

“…Συγκεκριμένα, σε μικροαερόφιλες συνθήκες (όπου υφίσταται η διαδικασία της αζωτοδέσμευσης), το αμμωνιακό άζωτο παρεμποδίζει, εκτός από τη σύνθεση και τη δραστικότητα της νιτρογενάσης, και τη βακτηριακή ανάπτυξη (Tsagou et al, 2003;Tsagou and Aggelis, 2006 (Cacciari et al, 1986). Παρ' όλο που οι ελεύθερα διαβιούντες αζωτοδεσμευτικοί πληθυσμοί χρειάζονται μεγάλα ποσά ενέργειας για να υποστηρίξουν την αζωτοδεσμευτική δραστικότητα, δεν είναι ικανοί να αναπτύξουν στενές συμβιωτικές σχέσεις με τα φυτά.…”
