We conducted a greenhouse trial to determine specific compatible interactions between Erwinia tracheiphila strains and cucurbit host species. Using a modified inoculation system, E. tracheiphila strains HCa1-5N, UnisCu1-1N, and MISpSq-N... more
Serratia plymithicum J7 culture supernatant displayed activity against many pathogenic strains of Erwinia amylovora, the causal agent of the most serious bacterial disease of apple and pear trees, fire blight, and against Klebsiella... more
Use of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria in managing bacterial canker disease of tomato was studied in the present work. Tomato seeds were treated with PGPR strains viz., Bacillus pumilus INR7, Bacillus pumilus SE34, Bacillus pumilus... more
The hrp/wts gene cluster of Pantoea stewartii subsp. stew-artii is required for pathogenicity on sweet corn and the ability to elicit a hypersensitive response (HR) in tobacco. Site-directed transposon mutagenesis and nucleotide... more
The arsenic biogeochemical cycle is greatly dependent on microbial transformations that affect both the distribution and mobility of arsenic species in the environment. In this study, a microbial biofilm from volcanic rocks was... more
Genotypic characterization, based on the analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphism of the recA gene fragment PCR product (recA PCR-RFLP), was performed on members of the former Erwinia genus. PCR primers deduced from published... more
Effects of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (Pseudomonas putida MTCC No. 3604 and Pseudomonas alcaligenes MTCC No. 493) and parasitic fungi (Pochonia chlamydosporia KIA and Paecilomyces lilacinus KIA) were studied, alone and together... more
The host range of the gall-forming bacterium Erwinia herbicola pv. gypsophilae (Ehg) is restricted to the gypsophila plant whereas E. herbicola pv. betae (Ehb) incites galls on beet as well as gypsophila. The pathogenicity of Ehg and Ehb... more
