Cell-cell communication of bacteria of the Roseobacter clade with other bacteria and algae (B04)

本项目将侧重于甲藻、微小原甲藻和轮状海藻与其微生物群的相互作用。无菌藻类培养物将被接种罗斯巴氏杆菌组和抑制杆菌组的模式细菌，以确定它们对藻类的生长、代谢物产生和死亡的影响，并与无细菌培养物和含有天然藻类植物微生物组的培养物相比较。此外，还将研究香菇产生的外膜小泡及其作为DNA转运体的意义。

This project will focus on the interaction of the dinoflagellate Prorocentrum minimum and the diatom Thalassiosira rotula with their phyco-microbiome. Axenic algal cultures will be inoculated with the model bacteria of the Roseobacter group D. shibae and P. inhibens to identify their influence on growth, metabolite production, and death of the algae in comparison to bacteria-free cultures and to those harbouring the natural algal phyco-microbiome. Further, outer membrane vesicles produced by D. shibae and their significance as a transmitter for DNA will be studied.
