1. For instance, when nutrients run low, individual myxobacteria (slime bacteria) may come together to form a fruiting body to produce spores.

2. Myxobacteria provide an excellent system for studying prokaryotic development because they can initiate multicellular morphogenesis.

3. Conventional genetic analyses of myxobacteria were inefficient and time consuming such as transduction, electro transformation and conjugation.

4. The myxobacteria have a life cycle that is dominated by social behavior. During vegetative growth, cells prey on other bacteria in large groups by gliding motility.

5. Unlike the normal terrestrial myxobacteria. HW-1 grew in the medium ranging from 0% to 130% seawater and the optimal growth conditions were at 0-80% seawater.

6. Lab studies have shown that cheating myxobacteria that only produce spores and never help form the non-spore producing parts of the fruiting body can drive populations to extinction.

7. The myxobacteria show typical social behaviors, such as cell density-dependent growth patterns and growing close together.

8. In addition, myxobacteria translocate in large groups and prey on other organisms.

9. During developmental aggregation and predatory lifestyle , gliding motility is very important for myxobacteria.

10. Frank found what they were looking for in a collection of natural substances which had originally been isolated from microorganisms which live in soil the so called Myxobacteria.

11. The antitumor activity and mechanism of component A produced by myxobacteria AHB103-1 were elementarily discussed in the article.

12. In addition, the previous study bears evidence of the majority of the myxobacteria in nature being uncultured . Isolation and purification of novel myxobacteria is a potential and urgent work.

13. Malek and Frank found what they were looking for in a collection of natural substances which had originally been isolated from microorganisms which live in soil the so called Myxobacteria.
