Moreover, they have been recently reported as producers of antimicrobial compounds, which inhibit the growth of other bacteria. In this work we characterized from different viewpoints the Gillisia sp. CAL575 strain, a psychrotrophic bacterium that produces microbial volatile organic compounds involved in the growth inhibition of...
