本研究揭示了在β-内酰胺抗生素胁迫下,非运动细菌(如肺炎克雷伯菌)通过降解抗生素为运动细菌(如铜绿假单胞菌)创造"安全区",从而促进群落空间扩张的隐藏机制。该发现强调了空间结构对微生物互作的关键影响,对理解生物膜形成和多微生物感染具有重要启示。
0.05), without(top) or with CTX(2.5μg ml1,bottom).Curves and shades show average and standard deviation, respectively, from n=2 biological replicates, each with three technical replicates. b Pseudomonas domi-nated Klebsiella under the CTX treatment in well-mixed co-cultures. Liquid media were inoculated with a 1:1 mixture of the two species at OD600=-2.1x10-5,incubated for 27 h, and then plated to determine relative abundances(Supplementary Fig.4b).Symbols denote n=3 independent replicates(solid/open markers show technical replicates); diamond indicates data from fluorescently labeled strains. Bars and error bars represent mean and standard deviation, respectively, from n=2 after averaging technical replicates, c Pseudomonas range expansion was sup-pressed by CTX and rescued by Klebsiella. 20 ml of swarming agar(0.55%) media were center inoculated with 1μl of Klebsiella or Pseudomonas(OD600=-0.43).Colony images were captured at 24 h, processed, and analyzed for colony areas using a custom Python script(Methods; Supplementary Fig.3). Images shown were equally adjusted for brightness/contrast. Dish diameter:100 mm. See Supplemen-tary Fig.7 for raw images from n=3 biological replicates. d The rescue of the coculture range expansion occurred at the expense of Klebsiella's growth. In the same experiments as in(c), agar media were center inoculated with 1μl of 1:1 mixture of the two species(OD600=-0.43) and imaged after 24 h.Then, whole colonies were harvested with 5 ml of saline, and relative abundances were estimated by plating(Supplementary Fig.4b). Symbols indicate n=3 independent experi-ments, with solid/open markers showing technical replicates. Bars and error bars show mean and standard deviation of independent experiments after averaging technical replicates. Images shown were equally adjusted for brightness/contrast.'>
1μlof Bp or Pa22 at OD600=?0.43with or without CB (10μgml?1).Dishes were imaged at 24h, processed, and analyzed for colony areas using a custom Python script(Methods). Images shown were equally adjusted for bright-ness/contrast. Dish diameter: 100 mm. Raw images from n=2 independent repli-cates are in Supplementary Fig.19.d The rescue of the coculture range expansion occurred at the expense of Bp's growth. In the same experiments as in(c), media were center inoculated with 1μl of 1:1 mixture of the two species at OD600=-0.43(circles) or-0.34(triangles).The dishes were imaged after 24 h(see Supplementary Fig.19 for raw images).Then,whole colonies were harvested with 5 ml of saline,and relative abundances were estimated by plating(Supplementary Fig.21b). Bars and error bars show mean and standard deviation of n=2 independent experiments(symbols) after averaging technical replicates(solid/open markers).Images shown were equally adjusted for brightness/contrast.
