Pseudomonas fluorescens A506 genome sequencing

Pseudomonas fluorescens A506 was isolated from a leaf of a pear tree in California, USA (PMID:16349371), and is a commercial biological control agent used primarily for the suppression of fire blight on pear and apple, which is caused by the plant pathogenic bacterium Erwinia amylovora (PMID:18944382). P. fluorescens A506 is a model organism for studies on biological control of plant diseases and the ecology of commensal bacteria inhabiting aerial plant surfaces (PMID: 18943060, 20839962).

荧光假单胞菌(Pseudomonas fluorescens) A506于美国加利福尼亚州的一株梨树叶片中分离得到（PMID: 16349371）。该菌株是一款商用生物防治制剂，主要用于防治梨、苹果上由植物病原细菌解淀粉欧文氏菌(Erwinia amylovora)引发的火疫病（PMID: 18944382）。荧光假单胞菌A506亦是研究植物病害生物防治以及定殖于植物地上部表面的共栖细菌生态学的模式生物（PMID: 18943060、20839962）。
