Journal ArticleDOI
Suppression of Root Diseases by Pseudomonas fluorescens CHA0: Importance of the Bacterial Secondary Metabolite 2,4-Diacetylphloroglucinol
Christoph Keel,Ursula Schnider,Monika Maurhofer,Christophe Voisard,Jacques Laville,Ulrich Burger,P. Wirthner,Dieter Haas,Geneviève Défago +8 more
TL;DR: Pseudomonas fluorescens strain CHAO suppresses Thielaviopsis basicola-induced black root rot of tobacco and Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici-induced take-all of wheat.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of systemic resistance of tobacco to tobacco necrosis virus by the root-colonizing Pseudomonas fluorescens strain CHA0: influence of the gacA gene and of pyoverdine production
TL;DR: Plants tested showed resistance in leaves to infection with tobacco necrosis virus to the same extent as plants previously immunized with TNY (induced resistance control) and Pseudomonas fluorescens strain CHA0, which suppresses various plant diseases caused by soilborne pathogens also can restrict leaf disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global control in Pseudomonas fluorescens mediating antibiotic synthesis and suppression of black root rot of tobacco.
Jacques Laville,Christophe Voisard,Christoph Keel,Monika Maurhofer,Geneviève Défago,Dieter Haas +5 more
TL;DR: The gacA mutants of strain CHA0 have a drastically reduced ability to suppress black root rot under gnotobiotic conditions, supporting the previous observations that the antibiotic Phl and HCN individually contribute to the suppression of blackroot rot.
Journal ArticleDOI
Salicylic Acid Biosynthetic Genes Expressed in Pseudomonas fluorescens Strain P3 Improve the Induction of Systemic Resistance in Tobacco Against Tobacco Necrosis Virus.
Monika Maurhofer,Cornelia Reimmann,P. Schmidli-Sacherer,Stephan Heeb,Dieter Haas,Geneviève Défago +5 more
TL;DR: Introduction of pchBA into CHA0 increased the production of salicylic acid in vitro and in the rhizosphere of tobacco, but did not improve the ability ofCHA0 to induce systemic resistance in tobacco.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autoinduction of 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol biosynthesis in the biocontrol agent Pseudomonas fluorescens CHA0 and repression by the bacterial metabolites salicylate and pyoluteorin.
Ursula Schnider-Keel,Arnaud Seematter,Monika Maurhofer,Caroline Blumer,Brion Duffy,Cécile Gigot-Bonnefoy,Cornelia Reimmann,Regina Notz,Geneviève Défago,Dieter Haas,Christoph Keel +10 more
TL;DR: Results show that autoinduction of 2,4-DAPG biosynthesis can be countered by certain bacterial (and fungal) metabolites, which depends on phlF function, and may help P. fluorescens to produce homeostatically balanced amounts of extracellular metabolites.
