Symbiotic processes help development
A narrow space does not seem to be an ideal environment for growth, but there are two types of bacteria in the soil that can do this.
(Photo: Susse Kirkelund Hansen) The latest study shows that these two types can quickly adapt to be able to live together in a narrow campus, to create a densely populated community in that region. . 'Discovering how these two species can be reconciled will help researchers to learn more about the mechanism of mutual interaction, such as in tropical forests' , broadcast by Paul Rainey, geneticist specializing in evolutionary theory at Auckland University, New Zealand.
These bacteria are also known as symbionts everywhere . The plaque on our teeth is actually a community of hundreds of bacteria, and the vents for domestic waste are even more. These forms of focused living are a useful foundation for biologists' research on evolutionary theory to understand the interactions between species. Rainey, Susse Kirkelund Hansen from the Technical University of Denmark and colleagues seem to have seen the results when two soil bacteria with scientific names Acinetobacter and Pseudomonas putida live in the same place. time.
The research team estimated the adaptability and physiological functions of the two bacteria in different conditions. The researchers cultured these two species in 300ml containers with a fixed water content, in another experiment they were reared in a container of capacity greater than 4ml3 and covered with a layer of grass. . And the results show that Pseudomonas depends on Acinetobacter for food .
