Background: The microbial genome sequences provide solid in silico framework for interpretation their drug-like chemical scaffolds biosynthetic potential. The Pseudomonas fluorescens species is metabolically versatile and producing therapeutically important natural products.Objectives: The main objective of the present study was to mine the publically available data of P. fluorescens stra...

The degree of barotolerance exhibited by Pseudomonas fluorescens and Pseudomonas bathycetes in vitro polyphenylalanine-synthesizing systems can be modified by altering the concentrations of specific ions in the reaction mixture. Hybrid-protein-synthesizing systems, utilizing all the possible S-100 supernatant fluid and ribosome combinations from Escherichia coli, P. fluorescens, and P. bathycet...

Only the fluorescent pseudomonads, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, P. putida, and P. fluorescens, were sensitive to pyocins produced from P. aeruginosa.

Pseudomonas fluorescens ML11A, isolated from brook charr, showed a strong in vitro inhibitory effect against Aeromonas salmonicida subsp. salmonicida, a bacterial fish pathogen. Its genome harbors gene clusters for siderophore and bacteriocin biosynthesis and shares 99% whole-genome identity with P. fluorescens A506, a biological control strain used in agriculture.

Pseudomonas fluorescens is a genetically and phenotypically heterogeneous species that is often reported as a spoiler of fresh foods, but it has recently been implicated in clinical infection. In this study, we sequenced the genome of P. fluorescens strain ITEM 17298, isolated from mozzarella cheese and able to cause several alterations under cold storage.

Of a sample of 42 gram-negative Hg-resistant bacteria, three (a Pseudomonas fluorescens, a Klebsiella sp. and a Citrobacter sp.) contained translocatable elements conferring resistance to Hg2+ (all three) and to Hg2+ and phenylmercuric acetate (P. fluorescens). The discovery of transposable phenylmercuric acetate resistance extends the range of known resistance "transposons" from heavy metals a...

We report the draft genomes of five Pseudomonas fluorescens strains, isolated from clinical samples. Phylogenetic analysis places three in subclade I and two in subclade II of the P. fluorescens species complex. The average G+C content and genomic size are 63% and 7.1 Mbp (subclade I) and 59.6% and 6.14 Mbp (subclade II), respectively.

Pedobacter sp. strain V48 participates in an interaction with Pseudomonas fluorescens which elicits interaction-induced phenotypes. We report the draft genome sequence of Pedobacter sp. V48, consisting of 6.46 Mbp. The sequence will contribute to improved understanding of the genus and facilitate genomic analysis of the model interspecies interaction with P. fluorescens.

Pseudomonas strains have shown promising results in biological control of late blight caused by Phytophthora infestans. However, the mechanism(s) and metabolites involved are in many cases poorly understood. Here, the role of the cyclic lipopeptide massetolide A of Pseudomonas fluorescens SS101 in biocontrol of tomato late blight was examined. Pseudomonas fluorescens SS101 was effective in prev...
