Artificial Surfaces in Phyllosphere Microbiology.

TL;DR: An outlook into future uses of artificial leaf surfaces is provided, foretelling a greater role for microfluidics to introduce biological and chemical gradients into artificial leaf environments and stressing the importance of artificial surfaces to generate quantitative data that support computational models of microbial life on real leaves.
Journal ArticleDOI

Draft Genome Sequence of the Phyllosphere Model Bacterium Pantoea agglomerans 299R

TL;DR: The draft genome sequence of Pantoea agglomerans 299R, a phyllosphere isolate that has become a model strain for studying the ecology of plant leaf-associated bacterial commensals, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic characterization of insertion sequence ISJP4 on plasmid pJP4 from Ralstonia eutropha JMP134

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a piece of DNA that is flanked by two complete copies of ISJP4 can be transposed, and could be classified into the IS5 group of the IS4 family of bacterial insertion sequences, where it is mostly related to IS402 of Burkholderia cepacia.
Journal ArticleDOI

From genes to ecosystems in microbiology: modeling approaches and the importance of individuality

TL;DR: This work reviews published models that explicitly consider genes and make predictions at the population or ecosystem level, and describes and contrasts three general approaches, i.e., metabolic flux, gene-centric and agent-based, applied to a hypothetical ecosystem and discusses their strengths and weaknesses.
Journal ArticleDOI

The mechanics of bacterial cluster formation on plant leaf surfaces as revealed by bioreporter technology.

TL;DR: A dynamic model of leaf surface colonization, where both aggregative and reproductive mechanisms take place, is supported by a bioreporter-based approach and should be broadly applicable towards a more quantitative and mechanistic understanding of bacterial colonization of surfaces in general.
