Pectin Induced Colony Expansion of Soil-Derived Flavobacterium Strains

Abstract: The genus Flavobacterium is characterized by the capacity to metabolize complex organic compounds and a unique gliding motility mechanism. Flavobacteria are often abundant in root microbiomes of various plants, but the factors contributing to this high abundance are currently unknown. In this study, we evaluated the effect of various plant-associated poly- and mono-saccharides on colony expansion of two Flavobacterium strains. Both strains were able to spread on pectin and other polysaccharides such as microcr… Show more

“…This was evident in the case of Flavobacteriaceae, the relatively most abundant family in our experiment, whose abundance changed in response to earthworm activity under broccoli and faba bean cultivation ( Table 1 ; Supplementary Figures S5 and S6 ). In particular, the abundance of this bacterial family around the rhizoplane has been reported to be higher than in the rhizosphere and bulk soil and seems to be closely related to the type of cultivated plants [ 45 ].…”

“…; Abalos et al, 2004 ), and biosynthesis of secondary metabolites ( Flavobacteriia spp. ; Kraut-cohen et al, 2021 ), among others. Overall, different soil samples of the same tailing can harbor different types of microbial communities, and these differences may be due to the acidity of the environment or micronutrient concentrations.…”

“…The combination of the optical and anatomical studies of the colonies therefore suggests that the cellular organization is strongly affected by the presence of fucoidan, which not only increases the diameter of the cells, thereby changing the colour of the colony but also perturbs the otherwise highly ordered organization on the cells. Moreover, cell motility is also affected: on ASWBF plates, IR1 displays a ring-like expansion, reminiscent of the biphasic expansion observed in the closely related strain Flavobacterium johnsoniae, when grown on the polysaccharide pectin [32]. Such behaviour stands in sharp contrast to the homogeneous spreading behaviour observed on ASWB and ASWBC plates (electronic supplementary material, figure S7b).…”
