| Abstract | Primary and secondary forms of Photorhabdus luminescens Hm and Xenorhabdus nematophilus N2-4 were grown at 18 and 28(deg)C for 24 to 96 h, and we made determinations of the fatty-acid compositions of total lipids and of the fluidity measured by 5-doxyl-stearic acid embedded in liposomes made from total lipids. The levels of the unsaturated fatty acids 16:1 and 18:1 (those with chain lengths of 16 or 18 and one double bond) generally were higher in primary-phase variants of P. luminescens grown at 18(deg)C than in those grown at 28(deg)C. Prolonged culture at 18(deg)C caused the level of 18:1 to fall and reach that observed at 28(deg)C. The ratio of saturated to unsaturated fatty acids rose with prolonged culture times in variants of each species at both phases. When grown at 18(deg)C, the proportion of 16:1 in X. nematophilus was lower than in P. luminescens; the patterns of temperature-induced changes were similar in these species. X. nematophilus contained a greater percentage of short-chain fatty acids (i.e., with chain lengths of <14.0) than P. luminescens. Lipid liposomes from primary and secondary cultures of both bacterial species grown at 18(deg)C were more ordered (i.e., less fluid) than those grown at 28(deg)C. This result suggests the surprising absence of homeoviscous adaptation of membranes to temperature. Also, liposomes from primary cultures were more ordered than those from secondary cultures and membranes from primary cultures of P. luminescens were more ordered at both culture temperatures than membranes from X. nematophilus. The biological significance of the effect of growth conditions on membrane biophysical properties in these bacteria is discussed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
