Members of the Pseudomonas genus produce diverse secondary metabolites affecting
other bacteria, fungi or predating nematodes and protozoa but are also equipped with the …

Actinomycetes have considerable potential for the biotransformation and biodegra-dation of
pesticides. Members of this group of Gram-positive bacteria have been found to degrade …

Bacteria produce a variety of particles resembling phage tails that are functional without an
associated phage head. Acquired from diverse bacteriophage sources, these stand-alone …

A wide variety of enzymatic pathways that produce specialized metabolites in bacteria, fungi
and plants are known to be encoded in biosynthetic gene clusters. Information about these …

Motility is a major trait for competitive tomato root-tip colonization by Pseudomonas fluorescens.
To test the hypothesis that this role of motility is based on chemotaxis toward exudate …

The major outer membrane protein OprF from Pseudomonas species displays strong
homology to several outer membrane proteins from unrelated species, including OmpA from …

The ability to correlate the production of specialized metabolites to the genetic capacity of
the organism that produces such molecules has become an invaluable tool in aiding the …

The genus Pseudomonas hosts an extensive genetic diversity and is one of the largest
genera among Gram-negative bacteria. Type strains of Pseudomonas are well known to …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains frequently produce proteinaceous, narrow-spectrum
antibacterial bacteriocins known as pyocins. The majority of these compounds exert their toxicity …

Pseudomonads are cosmopolitan microorganisms able to produce a wide array of
specialized metabolites. These molecules allow Pseudomonas to scavenge nutrients, sense …
