Abstract

The yield of infective juveniles of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora (Tf strain) in vitro monoxenic liquid culture was improved significantly as the amount of symbiont biomass, Photorhabdus sp. strain Tf, increased. To investigate the influence of abiotic factors on the growth and biomass production of Photorhabdus sp. strain Tf, triplicate flask cu1tmes were performed. The optinal temperature and medium pH for the growth of Photorhahdus sp. strain Tf were 30$^{\circ}$C and between pH 5.5-7.3, respectively. Aeration also improved greatly growth and yield of biomass of Photorhabdus sp. strain Tf. Photorhabdus sp. strain Tf in batch fermentation showed growth-associated pattem in terms of pigment production, and the pH of culture medium rose steadily until growth stopped dUling the fermentation. Both pigment production and culture pH rise would be useful parameters indicating a reliable growth of Photorhabdus sp. strain Tf.

공생 박테리아 Photorhabdus sp. strain TF 균체량이 증가함에 따라서 병원성 선충 Heterorhabditis bacteriophora의 Infective Juveniles의 생산이 증가되었다. 이 공생 박테리아의 성장 최적 조건은 각각 배양 온도 3$0^{\circ}C$ 그리고 초기 배지 pH 5.5부터 7.3 사이에서 얻어졌다. 통기 상태에서 박테리아 균체의 생산과 성장이 촉진됨이 밝혀졌다. Photorhabdus sp. strain TF 박테리아의 성장 중 생산된 색소와 배양액의 pH의 변화는 박테리아의 성장 정도 나타내어 액체배양에서 병원성 선충 Heterorhabditis bacteriophora의 접종시기로 표시로서 이용할 수 있을 것이다.
