The Filamentous Forms of Bacillus megaterium [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1954
SUMMARY: The fine filaments of Bacillus megaterium are shown to arise from large basal cells: they have paired nuclear bodies within walls differing in composition from those of the normal vegetative cells. No evidence was found for any sexual fusion of these filaments.

Bacillus benefits the competitive growth of Ambrosia artemisiifolia by increasing available nutrient levels

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Bacillus can help plants to acquire nutrients either directly or indirectly. However, the role of Bacillus community on the competitive growth of invasive Ambrosia artemisiifolia is poorly understood.

Plasmid-encoded genes influence exosporium assembly and morphology in Bacillus megaterium QM B1551 spores. [PDF]

, 2015
Spores of Bacillus megaterium QM B1551 are encased in a morphologically distinctive exosporium. We demonstrate here that genes encoded on the indigenous pBM500 and pBM600 plasmids are required for exosporium assembly and or stability in spores of this ...

Cyanide Metabolism by Bacillus megaterium

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1969
Cyanide disappears from a medium supporting actively growing cells of Bacillus megaterium, a bacterium isolated from a cyanide enrichment medium containing Fargo clay soil. Whole cells of this organism convert K14CN to asparagine-14C, aspartic acid-14C and 14CO2.

Red pigment in Bacillus megaterium spores [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1986
Bacillus megaterium QM B1551 spores contained a unique red pigment in their membranes that was not found in other species. This red pigment, presumably a carotenoid, was synthesized about the time of dipicolinic acid synthesis during sporulation and was associated with the forespores.

Growth inhibition of Beauveria bassiana by bacteria isolated from the cuticular surface of the corn leafhopper, Dalbulus maidis and the planthopper, Delphacodes kuscheli, two important vectors of maize pathogens [PDF]

, 2011
The phytosanitary importance of the corn leafhopper, Dalbulus maidis (De Long and Wolcott) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) and the planthopper, Delphacodes kuscheli Fennah (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) lies in their ability to transmit phloem-associated plant ...

Polysaccharide Capsule of Bacillus megaterium.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1959
SummaryCertain strains of B. megaterium produce capsules consisting of polysaccharide and lacking polypeptide if cultured in a synthetic medium containing glucose and nitrate as sole sources of carbon and nitrogen. The capsules give a specific capsular reaction with the same homologous antibody as that which reacts with the cell wall.

Comparison of Rhodotorula sp. and Bacillus megaterium in the removal of cadmium ions from liquid effluents [PDF]

, 2018
This study compares the capacity of Rhodotorula sp. and Bacillus megaterium for Cd(II) removal considering the influence of operating parameters (pH, biosorbent dosage, contact time, temperature, initial metal concentration in solution).

Effect of bio‐fertilization and edapho‐climatic conditions on chickpea nodulation, grain yields, and seed protein in a Mediterranean context: a meta‐analysis approach

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) serve as a protein‐rich staple, particularly in Mediterranean countries, where they are often grown in marginal and water‐stressed areas. This meta‐analysis synthesized evidence from peer‐reviewed publications across Mediterranean countries to assess how chickpea rhizobial inoculation influences chickpea ...
