Enhanced Endophytic Colonization of Flavobacterium Promotes Plant Resistance to Fusarium Wilt

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A natural microbial consortium employing a cross‐feeding strategy forms a stratified biofilm that promotes endophytic colonization of auxotrophic Flavobacterium. This enhanced colonization activates plant systemic resistance, effectively suppressing Fusarium wilt.

Effects of Different Bacteriostats on the Dynamic Germination of Clostridium perfringens Spores

Foods, 2023
Bacteriostats, as chemical substances that inhibit bacterial growth, are widely used in the sterilization process; however, their effects on spindle spores are unclear.

Soil pH Amelioration Synergizes Carbon Accrual with Yield Gains Under Organic Substitution

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Soil pH shifts towards neutrality in both acidic and alkaline soils under organic substitution. A global synthesis links pH amelioration to soil organic carbon accrual through enhanced microbial biomass after accounting for added organic carbon and its interaction with pH. This pH amelioration‐shared soil organic carbon accrual accounts for 5.1–8.6% of

Application of modified-alginate encapsulated carbonate producing bacteria in concrete: a promising strategy for crack self-healing

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Self-healing concrete holds promising benefits to reduce the cost for concrete maintenance and repair as cracks are autonomously repaired without any human intervention.

A Novel Immunosuppressive Effector Functions as a Bio‐Adjuvant to Enhance the Activity of Bacillus Thuringiensis and Chemical Insecticides

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A previously unrecognized link between quorum sensing and host immune suppression is revealed in Bacillus thuringiensis(Bt). The PlcR‐PapR system induces the novel immunosuppressive effector PisP, which inhibits DAF‐16 nuclear translocation and downstream immune defenses, thereby promoting Bt pathogenicity.

Detection of Bacterial Endospores in Soil by Terbium Fluorescence

International Journal of Microbiology, 2011
Spore formation is a survival mechanism of microorganisms when facing unfavorable environmental conditions resulting in “dormant” states. We investigated the occurrence of bacterial endospores in soils from various locations including grasslands (pasture,

Distribution of bacterial spores in supermarkets

Hygiene and sanitation, 2019
This work presents results of the study on the environment prevalence of spores of aerobic bacteria, which are of potential danger to human health. The investigation of swabs from handles of supermarket trolleys revealed on their surface the presence of a large number of spores of unrelated pathogenic bacteria carrying as antibiotic resistance genes ...

Next Generation Antimicrobial Coatings for High Touch Surfaces: Application, Benefits, Risks, Environmental Impacts and Sustainability Aspects

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial coatings for high touch surfaces promise infection control but are too often validated only in the lab. This review shows that active‐agent release governs both human toxicity and environmental impact and argues that durability and real‐world performance must be primary design criteria, placing a safe‐and‐sustainable‐by‐design framework ...
