Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Identification of novel microbial factors contributing to plant protection against abiotic stress. RESULTS: The genome of plant growth-promoting bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens FR1 contains a short mobile element encoding a novel type of extracellular polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) polymerase (PhbC) associated with a type I secretion system. Genetic analysis using a phbC mutant strain and plants showed...
