Use of bioluminescent bacteria, Xenorhabdus luminescens , to measure predation on bacteria by freshwater microflagellates

Light emitted by the bioluminescent bacterium, Xenorhabdus luminescens (isolated from a nematode host), can be measured to monitor reductions of these bacteria in the presence of phagotrophs. X. luminescens is relatively large (0.6 x 3 mu m), but comparable in size to many cyanobacteria. The authors...
