The biosurfactant viscosin produced by Pseudomonas fluorescensSBW25 aids spreading motility and plant growth promotion

Abstract: Food security depends on enhancing production and reducing loss to pests and pathogens. A promising alternative to agrochemicals is the use of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), which are commonly associated with many, if not all, plant species. However, exploiting the benefits of PGPRs requires knowledge of bacterial function and an in-depth understanding of plant-bacteria associations. Motility is important for colonization efficiency and microbial fitness in the plant environment, but the mechanis… Show more

“…tomato DC3000 fleQ mutant is similar to that reported for different bacteria after blocking flagellum production (7,8,13,14) and could be considered sliding, a passive form of surface spreading which relies on bacterial growth and biosurfactant production (3). As has been mentioned before, P. syringae pv.…”

“…Several genera of bacteria, including pseudomonads, exhibit swarming, a complex form of motility on semisolid surfaces which is absolutely dependent on flagella but also influenced by specific environmental signals, the presence of other surface structures, and the production of surfactants (8,13,72). In this work, we present evidence that P. syringae pv.…”
