Bacillus subtilis biofilm induction by plant polysaccharides
Open accessAbstract
Significance: The plant growth-promoting bacterium Bacillus subtilis is frequently found associated with plant roots where it protects plants from infection. Here, we demonstrate that B. subtilis root attachment depends on production of an extracellular matrix that holds the cells together in multicellular communities termed biofilms. We found that plant polysaccharides (major components of the plant’s cell wall) act as an environmental cue that triggers biofilm formation by the bacterium. Furthermore, these plant polysaccharides can serve as a carbon source used to produce the extracellular matrix. This work sheds light on how plants stimulate their colonization by this plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium.

“…formation is essential for efficient surface coverage, and the protein matrix component TasA and the exopolysaccharide have both been shown to be essential for effective plant root colonisation in both Arabidopsis and Tomato plants (Rudrappa et al. 2007; Beauregard et al. 2013; Chen et al. 2013).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
