A possible role of ground-based microorganisms on cloud formation in the atmosphere [PDF]

, 2010
The formation of clouds is an important process for the atmosphere, the hydrological cycle, and climate, but some aspects of it are not completely understood.

A duo of Potassium-responsive Histidine Kinases govern the multicellular destiny of Bacillus subtilis [PDF]

, 2015
Multicellular biofilm formation and surface motility are bacterial behaviors considered mutually exclusive. However, the basic decision to move over or stay attached to a surface is poorly understood.

Prediction of bioactive compounds activity against wood contaminant fungi using artificial neural networks [PDF]

, 2013
Biopesticides based on natural endophytic bacteria to control plant diseases are an ecological alternative to the chemical treatments. Bacillus species produce a wide variety of metabolites with biological activity like iturinic lipopeptides.

Penetration of Surfactin into Phospholipid Monolayers:  Nanoscale Interfacial Organization

Langmuir, 2006
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) combined with surface pressure-area isotherms were used to probe the interfacial behavior of phospholipid monolayers following penetration of surfactin, a cyclic lipopeptide produced by Bacillus subtilis strains. Prior to penetration experiments, interfacial behavior of different surfactin molecules (cyclic surfactins with

Surfactin accelerates Bacillus subtilis pellicle biofilm development

Biofilm
Surfactin is a biosurfactant produced by many B. subtilis strains with a wide variety of functions from lowering surface tension to allowing motility of bacterial swarms, acting as a signaling molecule, and even exhibiting antimicrobial activities. However, the impact of surfactin during biofilm formation has been debated with variable findings between
