| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study investigated the factors that determine the dynamics of bacterial communities in a complex system using multidisciplinary methods. Three phenol-degrading, phylogenetically different bacterial strains were used. Two metrics, J parameter based on kinetic parameters and ‘interspecies interaction’, were compared to predict which strain would become dominant in a SME. Population densities of strains used in SMEs were enumerated by real-time PCR techniques and were compared to predictions made from those two metrics. These results demonstrate that the effects of interspecies interactions within microbial communities contribute to determining the dynamics of the microbial ecosystem. The supernatant of strain C8 (C8SP) repressed significantly the growth of strains R2. Of the C8SP fractionated with different molecular weight and organic solvents, the fraction less than 500 Da in the H2O-soluble components repressed the growth of strain R2.
