Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, this strain belongs to the genus Exiguobacterium. This is the first report of an algicidal bacterial strain belonging to the genus Exiguobacterium. Strain A27 exhibited algicidal activity against a broad range of cyanobacteria, but elicited little or no algicidal activity against the two green algal strains tested. The algicidal activity of strain A27 was shown to be dependent on the density of the bacteria and to have a threshold density of 1.5×106 CFU/mL. Our data also showed that the algicidal activity of strain A27 depended on different growth stages ofMicrocystis aeruginosa （exponential ≈ lag phase 〉 early stationary） rather than that of the bacterium itself. Our results also suggested the algicidal activity of strain A27 occurred via the production of extracellular algicidal compounds. Investigation of the algicidal compounds revealed that there were at least two different algicidal compounds produced by strain A27. These results indicated that strain A27 has great potential for use in the control of outbreaks of cyanobacterial blooms in Lake Taihu.展开更多

The hexavalent chromium reduction was measured by growing the strains in DeLeo and Ehrlich （1994） medium at 200 and 400 μg/mL K2CrO4. The optimal Cr （VI） reduction by strains B. pumilis, Exigubacterium and C. cellulans was 51%, 39%, and 41%, respectively, at an initial KzCrO4 concentration of 200 ~tg/mL at pH 3 and temperature 37℃. At an initial chromate concentration of 400 gg/mL, the Cr（VI） reduction by strains B. purnilis, Exigubacterium and C. cellulans was 24%, 19%, and 18%, respectively at pH 3 at 37℃ after 24 h. These strains have ability to reduce toxic hexavalent chromium to the less mobile trivalent chromium at a wide range of different environmental conditions and can be useful for the treatment of contaminated wastewater and soils.展开更多
