Abstract excerpt
Pseudomonas sp. BW11M1 produces a novel type of bacteriocin that inhibits the growth of Pseudomonas putida GR12-2R3 and some phytopathogenic fluorescent Pseudomonas. A collection of mutants was screened for altered bacteriocin production phenotypes. Strongly reduced bacteriocin production was found to be caused by inactivation of the recA gene or the spoT gene. Conversely, in a recJ mutant, the bacteriocin was...
