Abstract excerpt
The biocontrol rhizobacterium Pseudomonas sp. M18 can produce two different types of antibiotics, pyoluteorin (Plt) and phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (PCA), which are inhibitory to a number of soil-borne plant pathogens. The pqsR gene, identified in Pseudomonas sp. M18, encodes a LysR-type transcriptional regulator in the Pseudomonas quinolone signal (PQS)-mediated quorum-sensing (QS) system. Here we investigated...
