Talk:Pseudomonas syringae: Bioprecipitation Mechanisms and Implications

Brandon,

I found this page to be very well written and insightful. I never would have thought that microbes would have been capable of dictating weather patterns. Your section about ecological implications of the bacteria was quite alarming. They really are capable of effecting an entire ecosystem. While this is quite interesting, the fact that such a small object can have such a drastic impact on something as large as an entire ecosystem is quite sobering. I also enjoyed your section about possibilities due to global warming.

Brandon you did an excellent job with your research of Pseudomonas syringae. Your figures throughout were descriptive. It was very interesting to see that this particular microbe plays pivotal roles in ecological cycles that determine weather as well as their ability to live in very distinct environments. It would be interesting to include any information on plants that have been genetically modified to be able to withstand the ice nucleation. Well done overall.
