Owing to its subterranean habit, chemical control is often ineffective, necessitating sustainable biological alternatives. This study investigated the distribution of coleopteran-active cry genes among indigenous Bacillus thuringiensis strains and evaluated their insecticidal activity against H. serrata. A total of 100 indigenous B. thuringiensis strains isolated from the Western Ghats of India were screened using gene-specific PCR for 12 coleopteran-active cry genes. The most prevalent genes were cry7 (66%), cry26 (65%), cry1b (64%), and cry34 (63%), whereas cry8 and cry9 occurred in fewer than 10% of the isolates. Preliminary bioassays at 380 µg mL⁻¹ identified 20 strains causing > 50% larval mortality. Concentration-dependent bioassays showed that strain NBAIR Bt68 was the most virulent, causing 73% mortality with an LC₅₀ of 149.95 µg mL⁻¹. Highly toxic strains consistently possessed the cry7-cry26-cry34-cry35 gene combination, whereas the total number of cry genes did not correlate with high insecticidal activity.

Yet, its influence on the invasion success of resistant strains remains poorly understood. In this study, we investigate the influence of bacterial heteroresistance, growth, and antibiotic selection on the outcome of an invasion experiment. We quantified the invasion dynamics of a colistin-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain across a colistin concentration gradient during co-culture with colistin-susceptible clinical P. aeruginosa isolates with varying levels of heteroresistance. The observed variation in heteroresistance and growth allowed investigation of the impact of these factors on invasion dynamics. Our results show that in antibiotic-free conditions, faster-growing isolates competitively excluded the colistin resistant invader while isolates with high levels of heteroresistance failed to do so. This competitive landscape shifted with increasing colistin concentration, giving the invader a fitness advantage that peaked around 2-4xMIC of the clinical isolate. The invasion dynamics was further influenced by the associated growth characteristics in the clinical isolates. These findings reveal how both heteroresistance and competitive exclusion shapes invasion dynamics. Understanding these interactions is critical for redesigning treatment strategies that minimize ecological opportunities for resistant strains to establish and expand.</p>","PeriodicalId":12214,"journal":{"name":"Fems Microbiology Letters","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2026-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149135689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We characterize the skin microbiomes of three combtooth blenny species (Blenniella paula, Praealticus labrovittatus, Alticus arnoldorum) that occupy distinct positions along the intertidal gradient-from fully subtidal to intertidal and supratidal environments. Using 16S rRNA sequencing, we compared skin-associated bacterial communities with those in seawater and substrate biofilms. The divergence between skin and substrate microbiomes parallels fishes' distribution along progressively higher intertidal zones. The supratidal A. arnoldorum had the most divergent microbiome, characterized by higher Gammaproteobacteria abundance and enrichment of epiphytic and mucus-associated taxa. Fish skins were enriched in 27 microbial orders that included genera commonly associated with fish (e.g., Vibrio, Alteromonas, Cetobacterium) but others rarely reported (e.g., Rubritalea, Granulosicoccus). Together, our findings suggest that variation in fish skin microbiomes parallels the ecological transition from subtidal (aquatic) to supratidal (terrestrial) habitats, although host and habitat effects could not be disentangled. We hypothesize that microbial symbionts may contribute to adaptations enabling amphibious lifestyles.
