Sixteen representative isolates of Pseudomonas tolaasii, the causal agent of brown blotch of the cultivated mushroom Agaricus bisporus, were previously assigned to two siderovars (sv1 and sv2) on the basis of pyoverdines synthesized. Each isolate was pathogenic and produced a typical white line precipitate when cultured adjacent to Pseudomonas "reactans" strain LMG 5329. These 16 isolates of P. tolaasii,...
