Summary: | Rhodobacter sphaeroides
has been well-known for its strong contribution to environment, medicine, food, and cosmetic industry. Here, we first reported the growth-promoting effects of an alginate oligosaccharide mixture (AOS) on
R. sphaeroides
. AOS exhibited a stimulatory effect on the growth of
R. sphaeroides
in a dose-dependent manner. The highest growth rate of
R. sphaeroides
was obtained in LB medium supplemented with 0.5% AOS. AOS exerted a selective growth-promoting effect on
R. sphaeroides
but not on
Escherichia coli, Lysinibacillus xylanilyticus
, and
Pantoea rwandensis
. The growth-promoting effect of AOS is influenced by light and may be involved in the up-regulation of
fbp2, RSP-0557
, and
RegB
genes. Our results collectively suggested that AOS should be employed as a growth-promoting factor to enhance the transition of
R. sphaeroides
to industrial applications. |
