Optimization and biochemical characterization of a bacteriocin from a newly isolated<i>Bacillus subtilis</i>strain 14B for biocontrol of<i>Agrobacterium</i>spp<i>.</i>strains

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: The identification of a new compound active against Agrobacterium tumefaciens. METHODS AND RESULTS: The culture conditions of a newly isolated Bacillus subtilis strain, designed 14B, were optimized, as a first step, to produce its bacteriocin (termed Bac 14B) for the biocontrol of Agrobacterium spp., the causal agents of the crown gall disease. Bac 14B was then partially purified and biochemically...
