A chitinolytic actinomycete complex in chernozem soil has a specific taxonomic composition, which differs from that of the actinomycete complex typically isolated on standard nutrient media containing sugars and organic acids as carbon sources. The actinomycete complex that was isolated by using nutrient media with chitin as the source of carbon and nitrogen was dominated by representatives of the genus Streptosporangium, and the actinomycete complex that was isolated by using nutrient media with sugars and organic acids as the carbon sources was dominated by representatives of the genus Streptomyces. The confirmation of the ability of actinomycetes to utilize chitin as a sole source of carbon and nitrogen came from the augmented length and biomass of the mycelium, the increased number and biomass of the actinomycete spores, the production of carbon dioxide, and the accumulation of NH4
+ ions in the culture liquid of the actinomycetes grown in the nutrient media with chitin. 相似文献

The results of a 4-year study in a hypereutrophic bay, Kaupunginselkä Bay at Porvoo on the south coast of Finland, indicated a significant correlation between muddy odour in bream (Abramis brama) and the amount of the blue-green alga Oscillatoria agardhii in the phytoplankton. This algal strain has previously been shown to produce the muddy-smelling compound geosmin. The numbers of muddy-smelling actinomycetes in the water and sediments of the study area were not clearly related to muddy odour in fish, nor to phytoplankton biomass. In the hypereutrophic L. Tuusulanjärvi, muddy odour in bream and pikeperch (Stizostedion lucioperca) was also related to the amounts of blue-green algae in the phytoplankton. 相似文献

Bioactive compounds from marine actinomycetes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Actinomycetes are one of the most efficient groups of secondary metabolite producers and are very important from an industrial
point of view. Among its various genera, Streptomyces, Saccharopolyspora, Amycolatopsis, Micromonospora and Actinoplanes are the major producers of commercially important biomolecules. Several species have been isolated and screened from the
soil in the past decades. Consequently the chance of isolating a novel actinomycete strain from a terrestrial habitat, which
would produce new biologically active metabolites, has reduced. The most relevant reason for discovering novel secondary metabolites
is to circumvent the problem of resistant pathogens, which are no longer susceptible to the currently used drugs. Existence
of actinomycetes has been reported in the hitherto untapped marine ecosystem. Marine actinomycetes are efficient producers
of new secondary metabolites that show a range of biological activities including antibacterial, antifungal, anticancer, insecticidal
and enzyme inhibition. Bioactive compounds from marine actinomycetes possess distinct chemical structures that may form the
basis for synthesis of new drugs that could be used to combat resistant pathogens. 相似文献

Acidophilic actinomycetes are shown to possess a special mechanism of adaptation to low pH conditions, which shows up in their ability to grow faster on acidified than on neutral media and to adjust the pH of the medium to a level favorable for the formation of aerial mycelium and spores. On nutrient media with pH below 5, neutrophilic actinomycetes either fail to grow or grow much slower than on neutral media; they do not alkalize the medium and do not form aerial mycelium. 相似文献

The detection of food odour by the freshwater eels, Anguilla australis and Anguilla dieffenbachii released a behavioural response to flow that resulted in direct upstream movement toward the odour source. Changes in various orientation parameters were observed as eels neared the source. Eels had substantially lower swimming velocities and considerably more variable heading and course angles close to the odour source (≤0·9 m) than further away (>0·9 m). Observed changes in orientation parameters were primarily due to changes in the behaviour of a searcher following odour loss. Cross-stream movements were initiated when the eel moved beyond the lateral margins of the odour plume. The behavioural switch from odour-conditioned rheotaxis to cross-stream casting following odour loss occurred more frequently close to the odour source where the plume was most narrow. Odour-conditioned rheotaxis enables the searcher to move quickly and efficiently toward the odour source without the need to extract directional information from a highly intermittent and complex chemical signal. 相似文献

Aims: To develop an intergeneric conjugation system for rimocidin‐producing Streptomyces rimosus. Methods and Results: High efficiencies of conjugation [10?2–10?3 transconjugants/recipient colony forming units (CFU)] were obtained when spores of S. rimosus were heat treated at 40°C for 10 min prior to mixing with E. coli ET12567(pUZ8002/pIJ8600) as donor. Mycelium from liquid grown cultures of S. rimosus could also be used as recipient instead of spores, with 24‐h cultures giving optimal results. TSA (Oxoid) medium containing 10 m mol l?1 MgCl2 was the preferred medium for conjugation. Southern hybridization was used to confirm that transconjugants of S. rimosus contained a single copy of pIJ8600 integrated at a unique chromosomal attachment site (attB). The transconjugants exhibited a high stability of plasmid integration and showed strong expression of green fluorescent protein when using pIJ8655 as the conjugative vector. Conclusion: Intergeneric conjugation between E. coli and S. rimosus was achieved at high efficiency using both spores and mycelium. Significance and Impact of the Study: The conjugation system developed provides a convenient gene expression system for S. rimosus R7 and will enable the genetic manipulation of the rimocidin gene cluster. 相似文献

Alachlor (2-cloro-N-(methoxymethyl)-N-(2,6-diethylphenyl)-acetamide) is an extremely toxic and highly mobile herbicide that is widely used for pre-emergence control of grasses and weeds in many commercial crops in Brazil. In order to select soil actinomycetes able to degrade this herbicide, fifty-three actinomycete strains were isolated from soil treated with alachlor using selective conditions and subjected to in vitro degradation assays. Sixteen isolates were shown to be tolerant to high concentrations of the herbicide (up to 720 mg L-1), and six of these were able to grow and degrade 50 alachlor (72 mg L-1) in mineral salts medium. Morphological and phylogenetic analysis enabled the assignment of the alachlor-degrading strains to the genus Streptomyces. Strain LS151 was related to the type strains of Streptomyces capoamus/Streptomyces galbus, whereas strains LS143 and LS153 were related to Streptomyces bikiniensis. The remaining strains, LS166, LS177 and LS182, were similar in morphological features and recovered in a single cluster based on 16S rDNA sequence analysis, but shown to be distinct on the basis of genomic fingerprint data (rep-PCR). Though a definitive taxonomic assignment of alachlor-degrading strains was not possible, these data indicate that ability to degrade this pesticide was detected in different Streptomyces taxa. 相似文献

The survival of environmental isolates of actinomycetes introduced with the seeds of agricultural plants in root-free soil and in the rhizosphere and rhizoplane was studied. Different strategies of colonization of the rhizosphere were revealed for the representatives of the genera Streptomyces, Micromonospora, and Streptosporangium, organisms typical for the moderate climate rhizosphere. The plants of winter rye (Secale cereale L.) inoculated with actinomycetes were shown to have growth advantages, while the cow clover plants (Trifolium pratense L.) had no growth advantages compared to uninoculated plants. The role of the plant component in the interaction with mycelial prokaryotes is discussed. 相似文献

Aims: To develop an effective gene transfer system for Streptomyces ipomoeae , the causative agent of soil rot disease of sweet potatoes.
Methods and Results: Of the several methods investigated, introduction of genes into S. ipomoeae could only be achieved using intergeneric conjugation from Escherichia coli . However, even results for that method varied greatly and were dependent on using particular media for S. ipomoeae spore preparation and conjugation. Transconjugant to recipient ratios as great as 4·1 × 10−5 were achieved when International Streptomyces Project Medium 4 was used for both sporulation and conjugation protocols. Both site-specifically integrating and autonomously replicating plasmids could be introduced and maintained in S. ipomoeae, and plasmids could be introduced with approximate equivalent frequencies from either methyl-proficient or methyl- deficient E. coli donors; the latter result indicates a likely absence of relevant methyl-specific restriction in S. ipomoeae .
Conclusions: Efficient transfer of genes into S. ipomoeae was achieved here by using an optimized intergeneric mating procedure.
Significance and Impact of the Study: The described protocol will facilitate further genetic manipulation of this agriculturally important pathogen. 相似文献

Fifty-four carboxydotrophic actinomycetes isolated from soils and composts were compared through 119 unit characters with representative mesophilic and thermophilic streptomycetes. The data were examined using the Jaccard, pattern and simple matching coefficients and clustering achieved using the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic averages algorithm. Acceptable cophenetic correlation and test error values allowed confidence to be placed in the resultant numerical taxonomies. The carboxydotrophic actinomycetes, which were distinct from cluster-groups corresponding to the mesophilic and thermophilic streptomycetes, formed two major cluster-groups the members of which were examined for the presence of diagnostic chemical markers. All but two of the carboxydotrophic actinomycetes had a profile of chemical properties consistent with their assignment to the genusStreptomyces. Quantitative fatty acid data were examined using the SIMCA package and the two statistically significant groups obtained corresponded with the cluster-groups circumscribed in the numerical phenetic analysis. Members of the two groups were also distinguished on the basis of their phospholipid composition. The two strains that containedmeso- as opposed to LL-diaminopimelic acid in their peptidoglycan also showed a distinct chemotaxonomic profile. It was concluded that the carboxydotrophic actinomycetes form a novel and taxonomically diverse group. 相似文献

Natural products continue to be a useful source of new leads for the pharmaceutical industry. Actinomycetes are prolific producers of natural products and one strategy to increase the possibility of discovering novel chemical entities is to screen actinomycetes considered 'rare' in the environment and previously under-represented in natural product screening collections. We describe a method using bacteriophage as a marker to detect these actinomycetes in environmental samples. This method allows samples to be pre-screened for the presence of target actinomycetes before lengthy isolation programmes are undertaken. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of dietary crude protein (CP) level on odour emission, odour intensity, hedonic tone, and ammonia emission from pig manure and on manure composition (pH, total nitrogen, ammonium, volatile fatty acids, indolic, phenolic and sulphur-containing compounds). An experiment was conducted with growing pigs (n = 18) in a randomised complete-block design with three treatments in six blocks. Treatment groups were 12%, 15% and 18% CP diets. Barley was exchanged for soya-bean meal. Crystalline amino acids (AA) were included in the 12% CP diet up to the level of pigs' requirement; the same amount of AA was added to the 15% and 18% CP diets. Pigs with an initial body weight (BW) of 36.5 ± 3.4 kg (mean ± s.d.) were individually penned in partly slatted floor pens and offered a daily feed allowance of 2.8 × maintenance requirement for net energy (NE: 293 kJ/kg BW0.75). Feed was mixed with water, 1/2.5 (w/w). Faeces and urine of each pig were accumulated together in a separate manure pit under the slatted floor. After an adaptation period of 2 weeks, the manure pits were cleaned and manure was collected. In the 5th week of the collection period, air samples for odour and ammonia analyses, and manure samples were collected directly from each manure pit. Air samples were analysed for odour concentration and for hedonic value and intensity above odour detection threshold. Manure samples were analysed for volatile fatty acids, and indolic, phenolic and sulphurous compounds, ammonium and total nitrogen concentrations. Reducing dietary CP from 18% to 12% lowered odour emission ( P < 0.05) and ammonia emission ( P = 0.01) from pig manure by 80% and 53%, respectively. Reduced dietary CP decreased total nitrogen, methyl sulphide, carbon disulphide, ethanethiol, phenol, 4-ethyl phenol, indole and 3-methyl indole concentrations in the manure ( P < 0.05). Volatile fatty acids and cresols concentrations in the manure of pigs fed different dietary CP levels were similar. A reduction of dietary CP and at the same time providing essential AA is an option to reduce odour emission as well as ammonia emission from pig manure. 相似文献
