Plant-associated bacterial degradation of toxic organic compounds in soil

McGuinness, Martina; Dowling, David N. (MDPI, 2009)

A number of toxic synthetic organic compounds can contaminate environmental soil through either local (e.g., industrial) or diffuse (e.g., agricultural) contamination. Increased levels of these toxic organic compounds in ...

Genome sequence of the biocontrol strain Pseudomonas fluorescens F113.

Redondo-Nieto, Miguel; Barret, Matthieu; Morrissey, John P.; Germaine, Kieran J.; Martinez-Granero, Francisco; Barahona, Emma; Navazo, Ana; Sánchez-Contrerasa, María; Moynihan, Jennifer A.; Giddens, Stephen R.; Coppoolse, Eric R.; Candela, Muriel; Stiekema, Willem J.; Rainey, Paul B.; Dowling, David N.; O'Gara, Fergal; Martína, Marta; Rivilla, Rafael (American Society for Microbiology, 2012)

Pseudomonas fluorescens F113 is a plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium (PGPR) that has biocontrol activity against fungal plant pathogens and is a model for rhizosphere colonization. Here, we present its complete genome ...

Crop establishment practices are a driver of the plant microbiota in winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus)

Rathore, Ridhdhi; Dowling, David N.; Forristal, Patick D.; Spink, John; Cotter, Paul D.; Bulgarelli, Davide; Germaine, Kieran J. (Frontiers Media, 2017)

Gaining a greater understanding of the plant microbiota and its interactions with its host plant heralds a new era of scientific discovery in agriculture. Different agricultural management practices influence soil microbial ...

Genome sequence reveals that Pseudomonas fluorescens F113 possesses a large and diverse array of systems for rhizosphere function and host interaction

Redondo-Nieto, Miguel; Barret, Matthieu; Morrissey, John; Germaine, Kieran J.; Martinez-Granero, Francisco; Barahona, Emma; Navazo, Ana; Sánchez-Contrerasa, María; Moynihan, Jennifer A.; Candela, Muriel; Dowling, David N.; O'Gara, Fergal; Martín, Marta; Rivilla, Rafael (BioMed Central, 2013)

Background: Pseudomonas fluorescens F113 is a plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium (PGPR) isolated from the sugar-beet rhizosphere. This bacterium has been extensively studied as a model strain for genetic regulation ...
