myxobacteria

He wants to show an astonishing film of myxobacteria.

Sorangium produces 50% of all known metabolites produced by myxobacteria.

Swarming is also used to describe groupings of some kinds of bacteria such as myxobacteria.

Gliding is prominent in cyanobacteria, myxobacteria and the cytophaga-flavobacteria.

They are almost always unicellular, although some species such as myxobacteria can aggregate into complex structures as part of their life cycle.

The last include the myxobacteria, a unique group of bacteria that can aggregate to form multicellular fruiting bodies.

Examples are colonies of Myxobacteria, quorum sensing, and biofilms.

Sorangium cellulosum is a soil-dwelling Gram-negative bacterium of the group myxobacteria.

Other researchers are studying the social behavior of myxobacteria, which are more highly evolved than the relatively primitive E. coli.

Cruentaren is a macrolide secreted by the myxobacteria Byssovorax cruenta .

Individual cells of myxobacteria and cellular slime moulds coordinate to produce complex structures or move as multicellular entities.

The myxobacteria ("slime bacteria") are a group of bacteria that predominantly live in the soil and feed on insoluble organic substances.

Examples include fruiting body formation by Myxobacteria and aerial hyphae formation by Streptomyces, or budding.

For example, myxobacteria, moving in swarms, are able to maintain a high concentration of extracellular enzymes used to digest food, from which all the bacteria in the swarm benefit.

This causes a severe response in the fish with inflammation and mucus production causing the decay of tissue and thus opens pathways for further infection by bacteria, usually myxobacteria.

The fruiting process is thought to benefit myxobacteria by ensuring that cell growth is resumed with a group (swarm) of myxobacteria, rather than as isolated cells.

Rather than going it alone, individual cells of Myxobacteria, for example, hunt their prey in cooperative groups, hemming in a target much as a pride of lions corners a gazelle.

Fruiting bodies are aggregations of myxobacteria formed when nutrients are scarce, the fruiting bodies permit a small number of the aggregated colony to transform into stress-resistant spores.

Homologs were not found in any other myxobacteria (such as Sorangium cellulosum or Anaeromyxobacter dehalogenans) which suggests the Pxr RNA gene may have a recent evolutionary origin in the sub-clade Myxococcales.

For example, when starved of amino acids, Myxobacteria detect surrounding cells in a process known as quorum sensing, migrate towards each other, and aggregate to form fruiting bodies up to 500 micrometres long and containing approximately 100,000 bacterial cells.
