Sessile Legionella pneumophila is able to grow on surfaces and generate structured monospecies biofilms [PDF]
Currently, models for studying Legionella pneumophila biofilm formation rely on multi-species biofilms with low reproducibility or on growth in rich medium, where planktonic growth is unavoidable.

Effect of growth medium composition on the efficiency of non-ribosomal synthesis in bacteria of the genus Bacillus [PDF]
Bacteria of the genus Bacillus are known for their ability to suppress a wide range of pathogenic microflora through the production of a variety of secondary metabolites, a significant proportion of which are non-ribosomal peptides.

Survival on land: A dark-grown seedling searching for path
To initiate its development into a plant, a small dark-grown seedling (prior to its emergence from the ground) must penetrate through the growth media. The path that the seedling takes during this journey has yet to be explained.

Medium alkalization due to carbon metabolism is largely responsible for inhibition of bacterial growth by Vibrio cholerae supernatants [PDF]
Vibrio cholerae is the causative agent of the diarrheal disease cholera. Many Vibrio species secrete antimicrobial factors, though the identity of such a factor has not been determined for any V. cholerae strain.

Influence of modification of growth medium and using of plant growth regulator to enhance growing power and growth of True Seed of Shallot (TSS) [PDF]
Red onion is one of the main horticultural commodities in Indonesia. Generally red onion is cultivated by using tuber as a source of seeds. The weakness of the use of tuber as a source of seeds, besides the high cost also the quality of seed is less well
