      Cardiolipin synthesis in Pseudomonas fluorescens UM270 plays a relevant role in stimulating plant growth under salt stress
      D. ROJAS, M. VENCES, C. SOHLENKAMP, G. SANTOYO* (*Institute of Chemistry and Biology Research, University of MIchoacan San Nicolas de Hidalgo, Morelia, Michoacan, Mexico, gustavo.santoyo@umich.mx)

      Microbiol. Res. 268, 127295 (2023). HPTLC of cardiolipin phospholipids in the deletion mutants of two cardiolipin synthetase genes, clsA (UM270 ΔclsA) and clsB (UM270 ΔclsB), in the rhizobacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens, on silica gel with chloroform - methanol - water 14:6:1 for the first dimension and chloroform - methanol - glacial acetic acid 13:5:2 for the second dimension. The lipid composition of UM270 wt, UM270 ΔclsA and UM270 ΔclsB mutant strains was determined by labeling with [1-14C] acetate. Detection by iodine staining and radioactive membrane lipids were visualized by exposure to autoradiography film or a Phosphor Imager screen. Individual lipids were quantified using an image software.

HPTLC of [2-14C]-cymoxanil in the cultures (medium and mycelium) and in the cell-free extracts of Botrytis cinerea on silica gel with hexane - ethyl acetate - acetic acid 70:30:1. The most polar products were separated on RP-18 (impregnated with a methanolic solution of tetrabutylammonium bromide 70 mM and dried at 80 °C for 5 min) with phosphate buffer (0.01 M, pH 6) – methanol 11:9. Detection by autoradiography. The hRf value of cymoxanil was 35 on silica gel. Different metabolites were detected using both stationary phases.
