Soil substrate membrane systems allow for microcultivation of fastidious soil bacteria as mixed microbial communities. We isolated established microcolonies from these membranes by using fluorescence viability staining and micromanipulation. This approach facilitated the recovery of diverse, novel isolates, including the recalcitrant bacterium Leifsonia xyli, a plant pathogen that has never been isolated outside the host.
土壤基质膜系统能够对苛求性土壤细菌作为混合微生物群落进行微培养。我们通过荧光活力染色和显微操作从这些膜上分离出已形成的微菌落。这种方法有助于获得多样的新型分离株,包括顽固性细菌木糖利夫森氏菌,一种从未在宿主外分离出来的植物病原体。
