Super exciting day in our lab today with my lab mate Jayson publishing his paper in nature communications. If you're interested in ultra small parasites in wastewater have a suss 👀📃 Petrovski Lab nature.com/articles/s4146…

🚨 New research from Petrovski Lab La Trobe Agriculture, Biomedicine & Environment & University of Melbourne explores microbial resistance in wastewater treatment! Scientists have identified how mutations in Gordonia amarae influence its resistance to the Patescibacteria parasite Mycosynbacter amalyticus, a key interaction in

This #MeetMeMonday, meet PhD student Jayson Rose from the Petrovski Lab. Jayson has recently published his research at how Patescibacteria depend on mycolic acid in Gordonia amarae for infection.🧫 Join me in congratulating Jayson! 👏 rdcu.be/eccRX

1/3 🌊 New research in Nature Communications! LIMS & La Trobe Agriculture, Biomedicine & Environment’s A/Prof Steve Petrovski w. scientists at University of Melbourne has shown that the key to treating foamy wastewater without harsh chemicals could be a new, parasitic bacterium called Mycosynbacter amalyticus👉 tinyurl.com/4xuwfhae

2/3 🦠 The study showed that Mycosynbacter amalyticus kills the foam-causing bacteria “Gordonia amarae” by attaching to the mycolic acid in its cell walls – the substance which stabilises foam in water. tinyurl.com/4xuwfhae

3/3 🔬 The study showed that to protect itself from parasitic attack, the Gordonia amarae would mutate without mycolic acid, thereby permanently removing its ability to stabilise wastewater foam. Read more 👉 tinyurl.com/4xuwfhae
