Abstract
Spatial Va
The microbial composition of water can be the difference between life or
death for many organisms. Microbes in lakes can reproduce and spread to
other parts of the water eycle. Ice nucleating Pseudomonads are microbes
that have been shown to be in all parts of the water cycle and damage plants,
These Pseudomonads conduct ice nucleation by inducing freezing of
supercooled
Pseudomonads can disperse anywhere. When bacterial ice nucleation occurs
around plant tissue, ice crystals form within the tissue and damages the plant.
To examine microbial composition, two Oklahoma lakes: the urban lake-
Lake Hefner and the rural lake-Crowder Lake, were examined. In each lake,
water samples were collected from three specific locations in summer and
winter months. Samples were inoculated on 10% tryptic soy agar to
determine total bacterial load and King's B agar supplemented with borie
acid, cycloheximide, and cephalexin to isolate Pseudomonads. At Lake
Hefner, the eastern shore had significantly larger bacterial concentration in
both seasons compared to other locations. At Crowder Lake, the center of the
lake had significantly lower bacterial concentration in both seasons compared
to other locations. Seasonally, there was lower bacterial concentration in the
winter at Lake Hefner compared to the summer, while Crowder Lake had
similar bacterial concentration year-round. Lake Hefner had higher bacterial
concentration compared to Crowder Lake. Pseudomonads isolated from both
seasons and lakes were tested for ice nucleation activity by inoculating in
super cooled water and detecting ice formation. Twenty-two ice nucleators
were detected at Crowder Lake and three ice nucleators were detected at

Pseudomonads are bacteria that inhabit soils and are pathogens of
plants and animals. Ice nucleating Pseudomonads (hereafter referred to
as Ice+) are bacteria that can freeze supercooled water in their vicinity
at a higher temperature than freezing would occur in their absence.
Icet strains have been detected in all portions of the water cycle and
likely spread via precipitation (Fig. 1) (Morris et al., 2008). Due to the
enrichment of Ice+ strains in clouds, ice nucleation activity is
hypothesized to allow Pseudomonads to move via clouds in association
with aerosolized water. This can be problematic because Ice+ strains
can be transmitted to agricultural plants through the water cycle where
they cause disease (Morris et al., 2008), Furthermore, Ice+ strains can
cause frost injury via ice nucleation of water in plant tissues (Lindow et
al., 1982). Ice+ bacteria have been detected on multiple continents, in
all forms of water, and in all seasons.
