  • A Whole-Cell Biosensor for Detection of 2,4-Diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG)-Producing Bacteria from Grassland Soil

    A Whole-Cell Biosensor for Detection of 2,4-Diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG)-Producing Bacteria from Grassland Soil

    The interest in bacterial biocontrol agents as biosustainable alternatives to pesticides to increase crop yields has grown. To date, we have a broad knowledge of antimicrobial compounds, such as DAPG, produced by bacteria growing in the rhizosphere surrounding plant roots.

    Bacillus amyloliquefaciens ALB65 Inhibits the Growth of Listeria monocytogenes on Cantaloupe Melons

    Listeria monocytogenes is estimated by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to cause disease in approximately 1,600 to 2,500 people in the United States every year. The largest known outbreak of listeriosis in the United States was associated with intact cantaloupe melons in 2011, resulting in 147 hospitalizations...

  • Fungal-Associated Molecules Induce Key Genes Involved in the Biosynthesis of the Antifungal Secondary Metabolites Nunamycin and Nunapeptin in the Biocontrol Strain <span class="named-content genus-species" id="named-content-1">Pseudomonas fluorescens</span> In5

    Fungal-Associated Molecules Induce Key Genes Involved in the Biosynthesis of the Antifungal Secondary Metabolites Nunamycin and Nunapeptin in the Biocontrol Strain Pseudomonas fluorescens In5

    Cyclic lipopeptide (CLP) synthesis gene clusters in pseudomonads display a high degree of synteny, and the structures of the peptides synthesized are very similar. Accordingly, the genomic island encoding the synthesis of syringomycin and syringopeptin in P. syringae pv. syringae closely resembles that of...

  • Phylogenomic Analyses of Members of the Widespread Marine Heterotrophic Genus <em>Pseudovibrio</em> Suggest Distinct Evolutionary Trajectories and a Novel Genus, <em>Polycladidibacter</em> gen. nov.
    Evolutionary and Genomic Microbiology
    Phylogenomic Analyses of Members of the Widespread Marine Heterotrophic Genus Pseudovibrio Suggest Distinct Evolutionary Trajectories and a Novel Genus, Polycladidibacter gen. nov.

    The genus Pseudovibrio is commonly associated with marine invertebrates, which are essential for ocean health and marine nutrient cycling. Traditionally, the phylogeny of the genus has been based on 16S rRNA gene analysis. The use of the 16S rRNA gene or any other single marker gene for robust phylogenetic placement has recently been questioned. We used a large set of marker genes from all available Pseudovibrio...

    Fungal Seed Pathogens of Wild Chili Peppers Possess Multiple Mechanisms To Tolerate Capsaicinoids

    Plants make chemical compounds to protect themselves. For example, chili peppers produce the spicy compound capsaicin to inhibit pathogen damage and animal feeding. In humans, capsaicin binds to a membrane channel protein, creating the sensation of heat, while in microbes, capsaicin limits energy production by binding respiratory enzymes. However, some data suggest that capsaicin also disrupts membranes. Here, we studied fungal...

    Biofilm Formation and Synthesis of Antimicrobial Compounds by the Biocontrol Agent Bacillus velezensis QST713 in an Agaricus bisporus Compost Micromodel

    Biocontrol agents are increasingly used to replace chemical pesticides to prevent crop diseases. In the button mushroom field in France, the use of Bacillus velezensis QST713 as a biocontrol agent against the green mold Trichoderma aggressivum has been shown to be efficient. However, the biocontrol...

    Response of Secondary Metabolism of Hypogean Actinobacterial Genera to Chemical and Biological Stimuli

    Microbial secondary metabolites are an important source of biologically active and therapeutically relevant small molecules. However, much of this active molecular diversity is challenging to access due to low production levels or difficulty in discerning secondary metabolites within complex microbial extracts prior to isolation. Here, we demonstrate that ecological stimuli increase secondary metabolite production in phylogenetically...

    Unveiling Concealed Functions of Endosymbiotic Bacteria Harbored in the Ascomycete Stachylidium bicolor

    The discovery of two bacterial endosymbionts harbored in Stachylidium bicolor mycelium, Burkholderia contaminans and Sphingomonas leidyi, is described here. Production of tetrapeptides inside the mycelium is ensured by...
