BACKGROUND 10 [0002] Plant pathogens are responsible for significant losses in agricultural production. Diseases in plants may be caused by bacteria, fungi or viruses. [0003] Most bacterial plantdiseases can be controlled with a combination of host resistance,cultural practices, chemical and biological control. [0004] Several strains of Pseudomonas have previously demonstrated biocontrol properties (see for example, Dowling 15 and O’Gara, 1994, for discussion of antifungal and antibacterial properties; Keel et al., 1992, for discussion of antibacterial properties, US Patent No. 5,622,846, 5,552,315, Ramette et al., 2011). However, there is no clear understanding re- garding the mechanisms of pathogen control. Some theories include the induction of systemic resistance in the host plant, competition with the plant pathogens or the productions of antagonistic compounds against the plant pathogens. [0005] Pseudomonas strain CL145A has been isolated from water samples and has a demonstrated ability to control 20 mollusks (see, for example, see Molloy, D. P. US Patent No. 6,194,194, issued February 27, 2001 and US Patent Application Pub. No. 20100266717).

  • Evolutionary Patchwork of an Insecticidal Toxin
    Ruffner et al. BMC Genomics (2015) 16:609 DOI 10.1186/s12864-015-1763-2 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Evolutionary patchwork of an insecticidal toxin shared between plant-associated pseudomonads and the insect pathogens Photorhabdus and Xenorhabdus Beat Ruffner1, Maria Péchy-Tarr2, Monica Höfte3, Guido Bloemberg4, Jürg Grunder5, Christoph Keel2* and Monika Maurhofer1* Abstract Background: Root-colonizing fluorescent pseudomonads are known for their excellent abilities to protect plants against soil-borne fungal pathogens. Some of these bacteria produce an insecticidal toxin (Fit) suggesting that they may exploit insect hosts as a secondary niche. However, the ecological relevance of insect toxicity and the mechanisms driving the evolution of toxin production remain puzzling. Results: Screening a large collection of plant-associated pseudomonads for insecticidal activity and presence of the Fit toxin revealed that Fit is highly indicative of insecticidal activity and predicts that Pseudomonas protegens and P. chlororaphis are exclusive Fit producers. A comparative evolutionary analysis of Fit toxin-producing Pseudomonas including the insect-pathogenic bacteria Photorhabdus and Xenorhadus, which produce the Fit related Mcf toxin, showed that fit genes are part of a dynamic genomic region with substantial presence/absence polymorphism and local variation in GC base composition. The patchy distribution and phylogenetic incongruence of fit genes indicate that the Fit cluster evolved via horizontal transfer, followed by functional integration of vertically transmitted genes, generating a unique Pseudomonas-specific insect toxin cluster. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that multiple independent evolutionary events led to formation of at least three versions of the Mcf/Fit toxin highlighting the dynamic nature of insect toxin evolution.

  • Pseudomonas Chlororaphis PA23 Biocontrol of Sclerotinia Sclerotiorum on Canola
    Pseudomonas chlororaphis PA23 Biocontrol of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum on Canola: Understanding Populations and Enhancing Inoculation LORI M. REIMER A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Plant Science University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Manitoba © Copyright by Lori M. Reimer 2016 GENERAL ABSTRACT Reimer, Lori M. M.Sc., The University of Manitoba, June 2016. Pseudomonas chlroraphis PA23 Biocontrol of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum on Canola: Understanding Populations and Enhancing Inoculation. Supervisor, Dr. Dilantha Fernando. Pseudomonas chlororaphis strain PA23 has demonstrated biocontrol of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary, a fungal pathogen of canola (Brassica napus L.). This biocontrol is mediated through the production of secondary metabolites, of which the antibiotics pyrrolnitrin and phenazine are major contributers. The objectives of this research were two-fold: to optimize PA23 phyllosphere biocontrol and to investigate PA23’s influence in the rhizosphere. PA23 demonstrated longevity, both in terms of S. sclerotiorum biocontrol and by having viable cells after 7 days, when inoculated on B. napus under greenhouse conditions. Carbon source differentially effected growth rate and antifungal metabolite production of PA23 in culture. PA23 grew fasted in glucose and glycerol, while mannose lead to the greatest inhibition of S. sclerotiorum mycelia and fructose lead to the highest levels of antibiotic production relative to cell density. Carbon source did not have a significant effect on in vivo biocontrol. PA23 demonstrated biocontrol ability of the fungal root pathogens Rhizoctonia solani J.G. Kühn and Pythium ultimum Trow in radial diffusion assays. PA23’s ability to promote seedling root growth was demonstrated in sterile growth pouches, but in a soil system these results were reversed.

  • Performance Evaluation of Microbe and Plant-Mediated Processes in Phytoremediation of Toluene in Fractured Bedrock Using Hybrid Poplars
    Performance evaluation of microbe and plant-mediated processes in phytoremediation of toluene in fractured bedrock using hybrid poplars by Michael Ben-Israel A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Sciences Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Michael Ben-Israel, March, 2020 ABSTRACT PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF MICROBE AND PLANT-MEDIATED PROCESSES IN PHYTOREMEDIATION OF TOLUENE IN FRACTURED BEDROCK USING HYBRID POPLARS Michael Ben-Israel Advisor: University of Guelph, 2020 Dr. Kari Dunfield Efficacy of hybrid poplar trees for phytoremediation of toluene in fractured bedrock aquifers is unclear and active mechanisms require validation. This multi-year field study was conducted on a pilot phytoremediation system at an urban site, implemented to address aged toluene impacts to a shallow fractured dolostone aquifer. The study aimed to establish performance by quantifying phytoremedial activities at the site. Contaminant concentrations in groundwater, soil, and soil vapour, measured in high spatial resolution, showed the main residual toluene mass is coincident with the water table and located favourably for phyto-remedial uptake and biodegradation, with shallow groundwater concentrations approaching aqueous solubility in high-impact areas. Biodegradation occurring in the vadose zone was shown through metagenomic analyses that enumerated toluene degradation genes and gene transcripts in roots and root-associated soil, and compound-specific stable isotope analysis that showed enrichment of toluene stable carbon isotopes in soil vapour. Transpiration measurement, in planta contaminant quantification, and high-throughput sequencing of microbial taxonomic genes in roots and stem tissue were employed to measure toluene uptake through phytoextraction and resolve biodegradation influences upon uptake patterns.

Exactas, UNLP, calles 47 y 115, 1900 La Plata, Argentina Pseudomonas species causing pith necrosis symptoms on tomato and pepper collected in different areas of Argentina were identified as Pseudomonas corrugata, P. viridiflava and Pseudomonas spp. Their diversity was analysed and compared with reference strains on the basis of their phenotypic characteristics, copper and antibiotic sensitivity tests, serology, pathogenicity, DNA fingerprinting and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of a 16S rRNA gene fragment. All P. corrugata strains tested were copper-resistant while P. viridiflava strains were more variable. Numerical analysis of phenotypic data showed that all P. corrugata strains formed a single phenon that clustered at a level of about 93%, while all the P. viridiflava strains clustered in a separated phenon at a level of 94%. Genomic analysis by repetitive (rep)-PCR and 16S rRNA-RFLP fingerprinting and serological analysis showed that the two species contained considerable genetic diversity. Inoculations of tomato and pepper plants with strains from both hosts caused similar pith necrosis symptoms.

Therefore, microbiologists are facing an arduous choice, either using the universal marker, knowing that these affiliations could be inaccurate, or engaging in more laborious and costly approaches. The rpoD gene, like the 16S rRNA gene, is included in most MLSA procedures and has already been suggested for the rapid identification of certain groups of Pseudomonas. However, a comprehensive overview of the rpoD-based phylogenetic relationships within the Pseudomonas genus is lacking. In this study, we present the rpoD-based phylogeny of 217 type strains of Pseudomonas and defined a cutoff value of 98% nucleotide identity to differentiate strains at the species level.

Type strains of Pseudomonas are well-known to represent only a small fraction of this diversity and the number of available Pseudomonas genome sequences is increasing rapidly. Consequently, new Pseudomonas species are regularly reported and the number of species within the genus is in constant evolution.
