Journal ArticleDOI
A library of linear undecapeptides with bactericidal activity against phytopathogenic bacteria.
Esther Badosa,Rafael Ferre,Marta Planas,Lidia Feliu,Emili Besalú,Jordi Cabrefiga,Eduard Bardají,Emilio Montesinos +7 more
TL;DR: The peptide H-KKLFKKILKYL-NH(2) (BP100) showed efficacies in flowers of 63-76% at 100 microM, being more potent than BP76 and only less effective than streptomycin, currently used for fire blight control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial peptide genes in Bacillus strains from plant environments.
TL;DR: The dominance of these particular genes in Bacillus strains associated with plants reinforces the competitive role of surfactin, bacyllomicin, fengycin, and bacilysin in the fitness of strains in natural environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cyclic Lipopeptide Biosynthetic Genes and Products, and Inhibitory Activity of Plant-Associated Bacillus against Phytopathogenic Bacteria
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the antagonistic capacity of plant-associated Bacillus against plant pathogenic bacteria is related to the presence of cLP genes and to the production of the corresponding cLPs, and it is mainly associated to the species B. subtilis and B. amyloliquefaciens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of Aggressiveness of Erwinia amylovora Using Disease-Dose and Time Relationships.
TL;DR: The wide range of aggressiveness among strains, the degree of host specificity observed in pear isolates, the very high infective potential of this pathogen, the independent action of pathogen cells during infection, and the possible advantage of including aggressiveness parameters into fire blight risk forecasting systems are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological control of bacterial plant diseases with Lactobacillus plantarum strains selected for their broad-spectrum activity
Núria Daranas,Gemma Roselló,Jordi Cabrefiga,Irene Donati,J. Francés,Esther Badosa,Francesco Spinelli,Emilio Montesinos,Anna Bonaterra +8 more
TL;DR: In vitro inhibitory mechanism of L. plantarum PM411 and TC92 prevented all three pathogens from infecting their corresponding plant hosts and both strains showed similar survival rates on leaf surfaces.
