Résumé

Bacteria experience changes in their environment and have developed various strategies to respond accordingly. To accommodate environmental changes, certain bacteria differentiate between specialized cell types. Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a marine bacterium, a worldwide human pathogen and the leading agent of seafood-borne gastroenteritis. It exists as swimmer or swarmer cells, specialized for life in liquid and on solid environments, respectively. Swarmer cells are characteristically highly elongated-a morphology important for swarming behavior. When attached to surfaces it forms swarm colonies, however, it is not known how cells within swarming populations respond to changes in the external milieu and how its distinct life cycle influences its ecological dissemination. The worldwide distribution of V. parahaemolyticus accentuates the need for understanding the factors contributing to its dissemination. Here we determine the stage-wise development of swarm colonies and show how the swarm colony architecture fluctuates with changing environmental conditions. Swarm colonies act as a continuous source of cells that are released from the swarm colony into the environment. Surprisingly, the cell length distribution of released cells was very homogenous and almost no long cells were detected, indicating that swarmer cells are not released into the liquid environment but stay surface attached during flooding. Released cells comprise a distinct cell type that is morphologically optimized for swimming behavior and is capable of spreading in the liquid environment and attach to new surfaces. Release of this distinct cell type facilitates the dissemination of V. parahaemolyticus in the environment and likely influences the ecology of this bacterium.
