Title: VOC emission of various Serratia species and isolates and genome analysis of Serratia plymuthica 4Rx13. Author: Weise T, Thürmer A, Brady S, Kai M, Daniel R, Gottschalk G, Piechulla B. Journal: FEMS Microbiol Lett; 2014 Mar; 352(1):45-53. PubMed ID: 24341572. Abstract: Bacteria emit a wealth of volatile organic compounds. Gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry analysis of five Serratia strains revealed ketones, dimethyl di- and trisulfide and 2-phenylethanol commonly released in this genus. The polymethylated bicyclic hydrocarbon sodorifen was uniquely released by the rhizobacterium Serratia plymuthica 4Rx13. Of 10 Serratia strains, only S. plymuthica isolates originating from plants grown on fields near Rostock (Germany) released this new and unusual compound. Since the biosynthetic pathway of sodorifen was unknown, the genome sequence of S. plymuthica 4Rx13 was determined and annotated. Genome comparison of S. plymuthica 4Rx13 with sodorifen non-producing Serratia species highlighted 246 unique candidate open reading frames.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
