ABSTRACTConjugation experiments withBacillus thuringiensisand transfer kinetics demonstrated that salt stress has a positive impact on plasmid transfer efficiency. Compared to standard osmotic conditions (0.5% NaCl), plasmid transfer occurred more rapidly, and at higher frequencies (>100-fold), when bacteria were exposed to a high-salt stress (5% NaCl) in liquid brain heart infusion (BHI). Under milder salt conditions (2.5% NaCl), only a 10-fold effect was observed in Luria-Bertani broth and no difference was detected in BHI. These observations are particularly relevant in the scope of potential gene exchanges among members of theBacillus cereusgroup, which includes food-borne contaminants and pathogens.
