1. Plant interactions: Brachybacterium species have been reported as plant-associated bacteria, where they may contribute to plant growth promotion, disease suppression, and stress tolerance. Some strains of Brachybacterium have been studied for their ability to produce plant growth-promoting substances such as auxins, cytokinins, and siderophores. Additionally, they may play a role in enhancing nutrient uptake, protecting plants from pathogens, and mitigating abiotic stresses.

2. Food safety and quality: Brachybacterium species have been isolated from various food sources, including dairy products, meat, and seafood. While they are generally considered non-pathogenic, their presence in food products may impact food safety and quality. Some strains of Brachybacterium have been associated with spoilage of dairy products, where they can produce off-flavors, off-odors, and textural changes. However, their role in food spoilage is not fully understood, and more research is needed to elucidate their effects on food products.

3. Biotechnological applications: Brachybacterium species have potential applications in biotechnology and industrial processes due to their diverse metabolic capabilities. They have been studied for their ability to produce enzymes such as proteases, lipases, and amylases, which have applications in various industrial sectors including food, pharmaceuticals, and bioremediation. Additionally, some strains of Brachybacterium have been explored for their biosynthetic potential, including the production of antimicrobial compounds and bioactive metabolites.

4. Skin microbiota: Brachybacterium species have been identified as part of the skin microbiota in humans and animals. While their role in skin health is not fully understood, they are believed to be part of the commensal microbiota and may contribute to maintaining skin homeostasis. Some studies have suggested that alterations in the skin microbiota, including changes in the abundance or composition of Brachybacterium species, may be associated with skin disorders such as acne, eczema, and dermatitis.

• The interactions are based on data from 1000 healthy individuals using shotgun 10M reads Precision Biome, a provider in full conformity to EU regulations for health information
• The width of the lines indicates R² (the coefficient of determination)
• Green indicates positive slope
• Red indicates negative
• Interactions are not two way because incidence of each bacteria are different
