Molecular evolution analysis of 16S rRNA sequences of native Pseudomonas strains and different fluorescent pseudomonads were conducted on the basis of Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis version 5.2 (MEGA5.2). Topological evaluations show common origin for native strains with other known strains with available sequences at GenBank database. Phylogenetic affiliation of different Pseudomonas...

Iron plays an important role in the pathogenesis and rhizosphere competence of the fluorescent group of pseudomonads and it is, thus, fitting that the characteristic fluorescence of these organisms is attributable to an iron-chelating molecule, pyoverdine. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is likely the best-studied member of this group, and while it synthesizes two siderophores, pyochelin and pyoverdine,...

Although many Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are used commercially, there is a need to explore more biocontrol agents combat various pathogens and sustain the productivity of crops. PGPRs inhabit rhizosphere region plant effective in managing pathogens. In this study, twenty-six PGPR isolates were screened in-vitro against fungal phytopathogens Bacteriological Laboratory, Departmen...

Indiscriminate use of chemicals as fertilizers and pesticides gives rise to substantial harm the environment ecosystem along with animals humans. More importantly, replace such hazardous agrochemicals, many biological solutions are available in nature which is present form microorganisms having capacity promote plant growth substantially. Pseudomonas play a major role plants like inducing syste...

the biological control ability of fluorescent pseudomonas spp. results from competition for space and untrient, antibiosis and colonization in the rhizosphere. biocontrol fluorescent pseudomonads produce a wide variety of antibiotics. in this study, the biocontrol ability of 39 strains of biocontrol pseudomonas fluorescens, was examined against fusarium graminearum the causal agent of wheat fus...

Microorganisms were discovered in clouds over 100 years ago but information on bacterial community structure and function is limited. Clouds may not only be a niche within which bacteria could thrive but they might also influence dynamic processes using ice nucleating and cloud condensing abilities. Cloud and rain samples were collected from two mountains in the Outer Hebrides, NW Scotland, UK....
