Effect of temperature on Pseudomonas fluorescens chemotaxis.

Abstract:

:The effects of temperature and attractants on chemotaxis in psychrotrophic Pseudomonas fluorescens were examined using the Adler capillary assay technique. Several organic acids, amino acids, and uronic acids were shown to be attractants, whereas glucose and its oxidation products, gluconate and 2-ketogluconate, elicited no detectable response. Chemotaxis toward many attractants was dependent on prior growth of the microorganism with these compounds. However, the organic acids, malate and succinate, caused strong chemotactic responses regardless of the carbon source used for growth of the bacteria. The temperature at which the cells were grown (30 or 5 degrees C) had no significant detectable effect on chemotaxis to the above attractants. The temperature at which the cells were assayed appeared to affect the rate but the extent of the chemotactic response, nor the concentration response curves. The ratios of the rate of accumulation of cells to the attractant malate were approximately 2, 4, and 1 at 30, 17, and 5 degrees C, respectively. Strong chemotactic responses were observed with cells assayed at temperatures approaching 0 degree C and appeared to be functional over a broad temperature range of 3 to 35 degrees C.
