The Selective Value of Bacterial Shape (2006, background): “Cells in biofilms or microcolonies are often more resistant to predation (203, 206, 207).”
Interactions Between Bacteria, Protozoa and Nematodes in Soil (2012, background): “Other factors such as high bacterial motility can also reduce protozoan feeding efficiency (Boenigk et al. 2001, Matz and Jürgens 2003, Matz and Kjelleberg 2005, Matz et al. 2002).”
Natural functions of lipopeptides from Bacillus and Pseudomonas: more than surfactants and antibiotics. (2010, background): “To protect themselves against predation, bacteria have evolved a range of defence strategies that can be divided in preinges-tional and postingestional defences (Matz & Kjelleberg, 2005).”
Enhanced Biofilm Formation and Increased Resistance to Antimicrobial Agents and Bacterial Invasion Are Caused by Synergistic Interactions in Multispecies Biofilms (2006, background): “Additionally, the bacterial cells present in a biofilm have an increased resistance to desiccation, grazing, and antimicrobial agents compared to their planktonic counterparts (15, 24, 28, 32, 53).”
Should we stay or should we go: mechanisms and ecological consequences for biofilm dispersal (2011, background): “Similarly, defence against natural predators such as protozoa and bacteriophages appears to be highly regulated, as different responses occur at different stages of the biofilm life cycl”
The basics of bio-flocs technology: The added value for aquaculture (2008, background): “Only the organisms on the outer layers are susceptible to predation by grasping feeders (Matz and Kjelleberg, 2005).”
Rhizosphere fauna: the functional and structural diversity of intimate interactions of soil fauna with plant roots (2009, neutral): “…1998; Arndt et al. 2003; Newsham et al. 2004; Blanc et al. 2006; Pickup et al. 2007), but only recently have studies begun to reveal the different roles of bacterial toxin production in defence of predators (Köthe et al. 2003; Matz et al. 2004b; Matz and Kjelleberg 2005; Jousset et al. 2006).”
The Social Lives of Microbes (2007, background): “Sixth, biofilms may also be important in protecting against protozoan predation, by allowing bacterial prey to reach a size beyond the maximum that can be handled by the predator, or through group-coordinated chemical warfare against the predator (Matz & Kjelleberg 2005).”
Aspects of rumen microbiology central to mechanistic modelling of methane production in cattle (2008, background): “…due to species or adherence to substrate is also largely lacking (Dijkstra et al. 2008), in contrast to other systems (including soil and marine ecosystems) in which much more information is available on the response of individual bacterial species to protozoal predation (Matz & Kjelleberg 2005).”
