Pseudomonas protegens strain Pf-5 is a rhizosphere bacterium that suppresses soilborne plant diseases and produces at least seven different secondary metabolites with antifungal properties. We derived mutants of Pf-5 with single and multiple mutations in biosynthesis genes for seven antifungal metabolites: 2,4-diacetylphoroglucinol (DAPG), pyrrolnitrin, pyoluteorin, hydrogen cyanide, rhizoxin, orfamide A,...

Bacteria in the diverse Pseudomonas fluorescens group include
rhizosphere inhabitants known for their antifungal
metabolite production and biological control of plant disease,
such as Pseudomonas protegens Pf-5, and mushroom
pathogens, such as Pseudomonas tolaasii. Here, we report
that strain Pf-5 causes brown, sunken lesions on peeled
caps of the button...
We provide here a comparative genome analysis of ten strains within the Pseudomonas fluorescens group including seven new genomic sequences. These strains exhibit a diverse spectrum of traits involved in biological control and other multitrophic interactions with plants, microbes, and insects. Multilocus sequence analysis placed the strains in three sub-clades,...
