| Sumario: | Objectives Identification of novel microbial factors
contributing to plant protection against abiotic stress.
Results The genome of plant growth-promoting
bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens FR1 contains a
short mobile element encoding a novel type of
extracellular polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) polymerase
(PhbC) associated with a type I secretion system.
Genetic analysis using a phbC mutant strain and plants
showed that this novel extracellular enzyme is related
to the PHB production in planta and suggests that PHB
could be a beneficial microbial compound synthesized
during plant adaptation to cold stress.
Conclusion Extracellular PhbC can be used as a new
tool for improve crop production under abiotic stress. |
