Pseudomonas fluorescens strain PFM2, antagonistic to Septoria tritici, also inhibited growth of several other phytopathogenic bacteria and fungi in vitro. Three inhibitory compounds were extracted from liquid glycerol‐peptone‐phosphate medium in which strain PFM2 was grown for 4 weeks. The compound recovered in greatest quantity (70 mg/1) was identified as 2,4‐diacetylphloroglucinol. The other two antibiotics, which were produced in small amounts (< 5 mg/l), were not identified. A similar pattern of inhibition against the different bacteria and fungi was exhibited by both 2,4‐diacetylphloroglucinol and strain PFM2 when grown in a medium of the same composition as that in which the antibiotic was produced.

This paper considers how ways of talking about New Zealand national identity still privilege a settler-centric perspective. The paper begins from the premise that settler colonialism is an ongoing project that must continually code, decode and recode social norms and social spaces so as to secure a meaningful (read proprietary) relationship to the territories and resources at stake. Somewhat akin to an obsessive-compulsive disorder, settler colonialism is deeply vexed by its own precarious identity, a precariousness that at the same time extends its powers throughout the social matrix that is the nation. Drawing on work in the field of Pacific Studies and Pacific arts, the paper considers how a form of Oceanic consciousness might act as an antidote to settler colonialism's obsessive-compulsive disorder. The paper argues that the imaginative, aesthetic and inventive dimensions of Pacific and Indigenous art and media contribute to an expanded vocabulary for thinking settler-native-migrant encounters within a contemporary settler nation such as Aotearoa/New Zealand. * Editors' note: 'Maori' (and 'Pakeha', below) should have macrons above the 'a' but are here published without them. The typeface we have elected for the Open Journal System does not accommodate the macrons used in New Zealand English. We apologise. In any case, we should point out that returning macrons is a poor substitute for returning land.
