الوصف: | Interest in the interaction of microorganisms with cesium ions (Cs + ) has arisen, especially in terms of their potent ability for radiocesium bioaccumulation and their important roles in biogeochemical cycling. Although high concentrations of Cs + display toxic effects on microorganisms, there have been only limited reports for Cs + -tolerant microorganisms. Here we report enrichment and isolation of Cs + -tolerant microorganisms from soil microbiota. Microbial community analysis revealed that bacteria within the phylum Bacteroidetes , especially Flavobacterium spp., dominated in enrichment cultures in the medium supplemented with 50 or 200 mM Cs + , while Gammaproteobacteria was dominant in the control enrichment cultures (in the presence of 50 and 200 mM K + instead of Cs + ). The dominant Flavobacterium sp. was successfully isolated from the enrichment culture and was closely related to Flavobacterium chungbukense with 99.5% identity. Growth experiments clearly demonstrated that the isolate has significantly higher tolerance to Cs + compared to its close relatives, suggesting the Cs + -tolerance is a specific trait of this strain, but not a universal trait in the genus Flavobacterium . Measurement of intracellular K + and Cs + concentrations of the Cs + -tolerant isolate and its close relatives suggested that the ability to maintain low intracellular Cs + concentration confers the tolerance against high concentrations of external Cs + . |
