Abstract
Competition between microorganisms as affected by temperature, pH, and the sodium chloride (NaCl) concentration was investigated by selectiv e replication from gradient plates. Salmonella typhimurium was inhibit ed by Pseudomonas putida at 20 and 23-degrees-C but not 30 and 35-degr ees-C. P. putida no longer grew at the extremes of pH and NaCl concent ration, particularly at 30 and 35-degrees-C.
