Insight into the Interaction between Plants and Associated Fluorescent Pseudomonas spp.

Abstract EN

Fluorescent Pseudomonas are known for their plant growth promoting and disease protection abilities.

In past years, a number of studies have focused on how these bacteria suppress disease and induce resistance.

They are known to produce antibiotics and siderophores, promote growth, and induce systemic resistance in the host plant.

This bacterium has come out as a model organism for ecological studies going on in rhizosphere and for studying plant-beneficial microbe interaction.

This review focuses on the current state of knowledge on biocontrol potential of fluorescent Pseudomonas strains and the mechanisms adopted by them.
