We investigate the diversity of yeasts isolated in gardens of the leafcutter ant Atta texana. Repeated sampling of gardens from four nests over a 1-year time period showed that gardens contain a diverse assemblage of yeasts. The yeast community in gardens consisted mostly of yeasts associated with plants or soil, but community composition changed between sampling periods. In order to understand the potential disease-suppressing roles of the garden yeasts, we screened isolates for antagonistic effects against known microfungal garden contaminants. In vitro assays revealed that yeasts inhibited the mycelial growth of two strains of Escovopsis (a specialized attine garden parasite), Syncephalastrum racemosum (a fungus often growing in gardens of leafcutter lab nests), and the insect pathogen Beauveria bassiana. These garden yeasts add to the growing list of disease-suppressing microbes in attine nests that may contribute synergistically, together with actinomycetes and Burkholderia bacteria, to protect the gardens and the ants against diseases. Additionally, we suggest that garden immunity against problem fungi may therefore derive not only from the presence of disease-suppressing Pseudonocardia actinomycetes, but from an enrichment of multiple disease-suppressing microorganisms in the garden matrix.

To determine the inhibitory capacity of lactic acid bacteria due to the action of antagonistic substances, we tested 474 isolates of Lactobacillus from the crop and cecum of chickens against gram-positive and gram-negative indicator microorganisms by the spot-on-the-lawn and well-diffusion antagonism methods. of the 474 isolates, 265 demonstrated antimicrobial activity against the indicator microorganisms. Isolates identified as L. reuteri, L. salivarius, or Lactobacillus spp. inhibited Enterococcus faecalis, E. faecium, Listeria monocytogenes, and Salmonella spp. but not L. casei, L. delbrueckii, L. fermentum, or L. helveticus by the well-diffusion simultaneous antagonism method under anaerobic incubation conditions. The antagonistic substances produced by some of the Lactobacillus isolates were inactivated after treatment by proteolytic enzymes, which suggested that the substances could be antimicrobial peptides or bacteriocins.

Considering the importance of nitrogen management and its biological fixation with diazotrophic bacteria, this study was carried out aiming to evaluate the agronomic performance of maize, in response to seed inoculation with Azospirillum brasilense and nitrogen application in side-dressing and leaf. The experiment was conducted in Selvíria, Mato Grosso of Sul State, Brazil, during the growing season 2010/2011, on a clayey Rhodic Haplustox (20° 20' S and 51° 24' W, with altitude of 340 m). Sixteen treatments were established with four replications, in randomized blocks with the combination of the factors A. brasilense (with and without inoculante), nitrogen rate (0 and 90 kg ha-1, in V5 growth stage) and urea leaf application (0, 4, 8 and 12%: application in V5 and V8 growth stage). The maize hybrid used was the DKB 390 YG®, sowed in the row spacing of 0.9 m. Parameters measured were productive and morphological components of culture and crop yield. Increase in maize yield by seed inoculation with A. brasilense was observed. The application of 90 kg ha -1 of nitrogen in side-dressing provided higher chlorophyll leaf index, stalk diameter and prolificacy, however, the yield not was increased. The application of urea leaf did not agronomic efficiency and, therefore, should not be used as the unique form of supply and alternative to nitrogen addition to crop.

As bactérias acido lácticas tem se destacado por desempenhar efeitos benéficos ao hospedeiro, entre eles destacam-se a ativação no sistema imunológico, desempenho zootécnico e eficiência alimentar. O objetivo deste trabalho foi selecionar e a avaliar bactérias potencialmente probiótica no crescimento e sanidade de Arapaima gigas. A primeira etapa foi o isolamento e seleção de bactérias com potencial probiótico a partir de 10 juvenis de A. gigas sendo submetidas a testes in vitro de inibição de patógenos bacterianos conhecidos para aquicultura, e a segunda etapa consistiu em testes in vivo avaliando a colonização do trato intestinal pela cepa bacteriana e sua relação com a hematologia. A cepa com melhor halo de inibição foi identificada com o kit API50 CH como Lactobacillus paracasei (99.9%). Para avaliação in vivo, os animais foram alimentados durante 120 dias com dieta contendo somente leite estéril (T1), dieta controle sem bactéria (T2), dieta com 105 L. paracasei (T3) e dieta com 106 L. paracasei(T4). Após este período os peixes foram submetidos três tratamentos: injeção intraperitoneal com Aeromonas hydrophila, injeção de solução salina e peixes não injetados. Ao final de 24 horas de desafio foi observado elevada mortalidade dos peixes pertencentes ao grupo T3, T4 em relação ao T1. Os resultados nos permite concluir que a cepa utilizada nos testes in vivo não influenciou o desempenho zootécnico, além de ser ineficaz na proteção contra a infecção por Aeromonas.
