Aggregative behavior of bacteria isolated from canine dental plaque

Article Abstract:

Interbacterial adhesion of bacteria isolated from canine dental plaque was assessed by performing a visual coaggregation assay. This showed that prevalence of coaggregating pairs of dental plaque bacteria in dogs is comparable to prevalence of coaggregating pairs of dental plaque bacteria found in humans.

Coprinus comatus damages nematode cuticles mechanically with spiny balls and produces potent toxins to immobilize nematodes

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to determine whether Coprinus comatus damages nematodes. Scanning electron microscopy studies showed that Coprinus comatus spiny balls damage nematode Panagrellus redivivus cuticle, suggesting the presence of a mechanical force during the process of nematode immobilization.

Effect of nematodes on rhizosphere colonization by seed-applied bacteria

Article Abstract:

The effects of soil nematodes on rhizosphere colonization were tested, by using microcosms and antibiotic-marked bacteria. The results suggest that nematodes have an important role in rhizosphere colonization by bacteria in soil.
