Genome sequence resource of Pseudomonas fulva HARBPS9.1—candidate biocontrol agent
Phytopathology 111 (5), 896-898
Abstract: The genus Pseudomonas contains a variety of genomic robust strains and species, well known for their beneficial use in a variety of applications, hence the vast amount of research done on this organism to date. We report here the draft genome sequence of an anti-Fusarium rhizospheric Pseudomonas fulva HARBPS9.1 strain from South Africa. This genome analysis identified clusters of genes responsible for the synthesis of pyoverdin and rhizomide in HARBPS9.1; these compounds should confer a competitive advantage on the pseudomonad.
