Article Title: Better to light a candle than curse the darkness: illuminating spatial localization and temporal dynamics of rapid microbial growth in the rhizosphere

doi: 10.3389/fpls.2013.00323

Figure Lengend Snippet: Luminescence detected using a Retiga EX CCD camera from populations of the microbiosensor KT2440/pZKH2 established in soil in 96-well plates . Bacteria were grown in M9 with 0.4% (w/v) citrate, glucose, or acetate as carbon source, spun down and re-suspended to three optical densities for each source, then inoculated into soil. All values are mean ± S.E.

Article Snippet: We tested the ability of the Princeton Instruments cooled Versarray CCD camera to detect luminescence from biosensors in soil, and the repeatability of the KT2440/pZKH2 biosensor response in soil to pulses of carbon, nutrient, and water availability provided via filter discs, over multiple days.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Luminescence detected using a Versarray CCD camera from populations of microbiosensor KT2440/pZKH2 inoculated onto soil and provided with pulses of carbon, various mineral nutrients, and water, all delivered via filter discs pinned to the soil surface . Panel (A) shows brightfield (left) and false-color luminescence (right) images of the filters. Panels (B,C,D) show luminescence from replicate filter discs within three of seven pre-treatments (see text), over five days, as pulses of carbon, nutrients, and water were applied.
