Effect of iron on biological control of fire blight by Pseudomonas fluorescens A506

Creator:: Temple, Todd N.
Abstract:: Competitive exclusion has been the mechanism hypothesized to account for the biological control of fire blight disease of pear and apple by the bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens A506 (A506). Recent laboratory assays demonstrated, however, that A506 produces an antibiotic that is toxic to the fire blight pathogen, Erwinia amylovora, when cultured...
