Commensal relationship between a sheath-forming bacterium, Sphaerotilus natans, and a sheath-degrading bacterium, Paenibacillus sp

Paenibacillus sp. strain TB is capable of degrading the sheath prepared from a sheathed bacterium, Sphaerotilm natans. S. natans was able to grow alone on casamino acids but strain TB was not. Cocultivation of strain TB and S. natans was examined in a medium supplemented with casamino acids as a gro...
