- 9 November 2007
Cloning, sequencing, site-directed mutagenesis, and complementation showed that massetolide A biosynthesis in P. fluorescens SS101 is governed by three nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) genes, designated massA, massB, and massC, spanning approximately 30 kb, suggesting that these two genes function in an operon.

It is hypothesized that plant species with a low degree of direct defense would produce more novel compounds, and almost all of the investigated plant species produced novel compounds that dominated the volatile blend, such as methyl salicylate, terpenes, oximes, and nitriles.

Six fluorescent Pseudomonas isolates with zoosporicidal activities were obtained from the wheat rhizosphere and it was found that the application of cell suspensions of strain SS101 to soil or hyacinth bulbs provided significant protection against root rot caused by Pythium intermedium.
Identification of Olfactory Stimulants for Anopheles gambiae from Human Sweat Samples
