Chemotactic responses of Vibrio alginolyticus to algal extracellular products.
Roy D. Sjoblad,Ralph Mitchell +1 more
TL;DR: A capillary assay was used to evaluate the chemotactic responses of Vibrio alginolyticus to three common algal extracellular products, finding that higher concentrations of the organic acids resulted in a decreased response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Invited review: bacterial flagellar sheaths: structures in search of a function.
TL;DR: It is postulated that flagellar sheaths may allow for specific interaction between a bacterium and a surface, and there is a problem as to the relationship between a rapidly rotating flageLLum and the sheath.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption of polarly flagellated bacteria to surfaces
TL;DR: It is proposed that both flagella-surface and somasurface interactions are involved in bacterial attachment and flagellar activity continues for several minutes after soma immobilization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemoreception in the green algaDunaliella tertiolecta
TL;DR: A capillary assay was employed to quantify positive chemotactic responses in the motile, unicellular, marine alga Dunaliella tertiolecta, and found that the alga apparently possesses one chemoreceptor that binds ammonium ion only, and another chemore receptor that binds the three aromatic amino acids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel function of eubacterial flagella: role in aggregation of a marine bacterium
TL;DR: Pseudomonas marina (ATCC 27 129) rapidly aggregates when suspended in buffered artificial seawater (ASW) as mentioned in this paper, and flagella-flagella contact was responsible for this phenomenon.
