Pseudomonas fluorescens: fur is required for multiple biological properties associated with pathogenesis.

Abstract excerpt

Pseudomonas fluorescens, a Gram-negative bacterium, is an aquaculture pathogen with a broad host range. In a previous study, we had demonstrated that knockout of the fur gene of a pathogenic P. fluorescens strain, TSS, resulted in profound virulence attenuation. In this work, we studied the properties of the fur knockout mutant, TFM, in comparison with the wild type strain TSS. We found that compared to TSS, TFM...
