Typically, Pseudomonas fluorescens is non-pathogenic, meaning it does not cause disease in humans. They are non-spore forming and can produce pigments, such as pyocyanine (green-blue) and pyorubrin (yellow-green) fluorescence Footnote 1, Foot… The inoculated plants were examined after two weeks. The genus Pseudomonas contains many species that range from harmless commensals to antibioticresistant pathogens. Elena García-Valdés, Affiliation: and sphingomyelin, Ciprofloxacin (a quinolone) - this is the most potent of the quinolones. Some of these Pathogenic Pseudomonas are found throughout the body, most commonly in the urinary tract, respiratory tract, blood and wounds 1. An analysis of three concatenated genes (16S rRNA, gyrB, rpoD; 2,818 nucleotides in total) was performed as described by Mulet et al.                     These Other plants were not tested for susceptibility. Group VII (two strains) consisted of isolates identified as P. viridiflava. area (lymphatics, lymph nodes and skin). - the infected area is viewed in the dark with a Wood's UV light for Citrus blast is one of the most important citrus diseases in the northern citrus growing provinces of Iran, which represents 60% of the total citrus growing area in Iran (approximately 100,000 ha). PLOS is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation, #C2354500, based in San Francisco, California, US. This is important because attempts are To determine the phylogenetic affiliation of the rpoD gene groupings in the genus Pseudomonas, 53 strains were selected as representatives of the 11 rpoD gene groupings for a multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) according to the following criterion: at least 2 strains per rpoD phylogenetic group were selected to have representative strains of each phylogroup and to assess the phylogenetic diversity within each group. of the All isolates were identified initially as P. syringae and P. viridiflava by the reactions in the LOPAT tests. As examples, results of the tests of 11 strains, one of each group in the greenhouse experiments are shown in Fig 1. Forty-six isolates belonged to phenotypic cluster VI in the P. syringae species complex. ribosome and causing misreading of mRNA. The isolates of Group IX are related to the two species of the P. koreensis subgroup, P. koreensis (96.7% similarity) and P. moraviensis (96.8% similarity). The 4 strains of Group IV are phylogenetically close to P. lurida (99.7% for strains FBF25, 31 and 42 and 97.7% for strain FBF5). LOPAT tests were performed as previously described: levan production [20], oxidase test [21], potato rot symptoms [22], arginine dihydrolase test and tobacco hypersensitivity reaction [22]. The molecular data confirmed that the partial sequence analysis of the rpoD gene is sufficient for rapid isolate classification. The robustness of the concatenated tree was demonstrated by the high bootstrap values at all branches. this type of cell lysis.             A final elongation step was carried out at 72°C for 10 min.         of organic compounds, e.g., The strains were initially grouped phenotypically and by their partial rpoD gene sequences into 11 coherent groups in the Pseudomonas fluorescens phylogenetic lineage. syringae [36] and P. viridiflava [7]. Despite their commensal nature, Pseudomonas fluorescens are nonpathogenic and lack virulence factors of other plant pathogens. biosynthesis and silver denaturation of various proteins. Both species groups are monophyletic in the rpoD gene’s phylogenetic tree and in multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) and are considered members of the P. syringae phylogenetic group as defined by Mulet and collaborators [5]. resident of the intestinal tract in about 10% of healthy individuals, and eyedrops, weak antiseptic solution, soaps, anesthesia and P. syringae and P. viridiflava are widespread on citrus foliage, although their presence does not always lead to disease development. The analysis of the rpoD gene partial sequences is a fast and reliable method to differentiate Pseudomonas plant pathogenic species, and the Pseudomonas species diversity is higher than previously thought for citrus plants. Collagenase - an enzyme Traditionally, these pathogens have been differentiated from other Pseudomonas species according to their colony morphology, ability to induce a hypersensitivity response in non-host plants, and the presence or absence of pectinase and arginine dihydrolase [3]. are gram- bacteria which morphologically resemble enteric bacilli of                     dysoxyli, 16 strains; pv. Contributed reagents/materials/analysis tools: EGV JL HR. Single colonies were cultured on NA containing 1% sucrose (NAS), and after two days of growth, the plates were maintained at 4–6°C for short-term storage and routine use. Pyocyanin - water soluble Pseudomonas is a clinically significant and opportunistic pathogen, often causing nosocomial infections. They are strict aerobes. b.     The individual and concatenated partial sequences of the three genes were used to construct the corresponding phylogenetic trees. Resistance of organisms to this No specific permission from any organization in Iran was required for the isolation of these bacterial strains because the research was for a PhD thesis. Group VI was the largest among the 11 groups, and the eight strains comprising the group were members of the P. syringae group. Pseudomonas bacteria are generally aerobic rod-shaped bacteria that are known for their metabolic diversity (DOE Joint Genome Institute). [12] and Berge et al. and composition of cytoplasmic membrane. The scale bar represents the number of substitutions per site. P. syringae is the first species in the Top 10 plant pathogenic bacteria [2]. Several strains were assigned to species that have not been described as plant pathogens and have been isolated previously from diverse habitats. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0148796, Editor: Boris Alexander Vinatzer, Virginia Tech, UNITED STATES, Received: October 3, 2015; Accepted: January 21, 2016; Published: February 26, 2016. The most dangerous group is Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a leading cause of concern as the source of many antibiotic-resistant infections. effective in stimulating circulating antibody but not cell bound antibody. Five strains of phenotypic cluster VIII were located in an independent branch between the phylogenetic groups of P. syringae and P. lutea. The major clinical features used in diagnosis are: 1. PCR amplification was performed with a DNA thermocycler (Eppendorf).

No exact crop loss data are available. Five putative novel Pseudomonas species shown to be pathogenic to citrus have been characterized in a screening of 126 Pseudomonas strains isolated from diseased citrus leaves and stems in northern Iran. It has two modes of action, blockage of folic toxic to the 8th cranial nerve and the kidney and is seldom used systematically. These results are in accordance with the proposal of Scotta and collaborators [37], who recommended the use of the rpoD gene for routine and epidemiological studies of Pseudomonas clinical strains. Group VIII (5 strains) included isolates that have a similarity lower than 92% with the type strain of any other species in the group and are, therefore, considered members of a putative new species in the P. syringae phylogenetic group (Fig 5). The symptoms were less severe under field conditions. fluorescence. 3.

Bacillus subtilis. to septicemia. Competing interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist. one of the most difficult organisms to treat with antibiotics. Farmers use bactericidal compounds to control the disease (e.g., copper oxychloride); however, this practice could cause serious damage to the environment and human health and also promotes the selection of pathogenic strains with increased tolerance to copper [9, 10]. Some pseudomonal species that previously were considered the causative agents of old diseases now are being reexamined for their potential use as biological warfare agents.         aeruginosa can thus Following the criteria proposed by Mulet and collaborators [5], the strains were assigned to known species in the MLSA analysis when the similarity to a type strain was higher than 97% and both strains were located in the same phylogenetic branch (Fig 5). Gentamicin - an aminoglycoside antibiotic consisting of three closely related P. mallei - causes broad scope, and wide readership – a perfect fit for your research every time. ; Pseudomonas fluorescens is an opportunistic pathogen that can cause ecthyma gangrenosum, which necessitates rapid diagnosis and treatment to prevent mortality. For long storage periods, the cells were maintained in 25% glycerol at -70°C. The MLSA groups (Fig 5) were congruent with the groups in the rpoD analysis.                     Strains in groups II (10 strains), V (13 strains), VII (1 strain), VIII (5 strains), IX (10 strains), X (4 strains) and XI (4 strains), which represented 37% of the isolates, could not be assigned to a known species and are considered representatives of at least 5 putative novel Pseudomonas species because each group is phylogenetically and phenotypically homogeneous and distinct from known species type strains.

P. syringae and P. viridiflava, which cause citrus blast and black pit disease, are pathogenic species to citrus plants. NAME: Pseudomonasspp. Pseudomonas fluorescens is a widespread species which survive in soil and water with different chemical composition and different climatic conditions. Some bacterial species are able to form biofilms which protect them from environmental conditions. They favor moist areas and are widely found in soil and water. Fluorescent pigment production was tested on King B medium (Merck, Germany) [19]. The physiological and biochemical characteristics of the isolates were consistent with the characteristics previously described for the genus Pseudomonas, although discrepancies with known features of the classical citrus pathogens existed in the LOPAT tests (levan production, oxidase activity, potato soft rot, arginine dihydrolase activity, tobacco hypersensitivity). The plant pathogenic Pseudomonas species that belong to the Pseudomonas syringae species complex include P. cannabina, P. avellanae, P. amygdali, P. ficuserectae, P. savastanoi, P. tremae, P. meliae, P. caricapapayae and P. syringae [(ISPP Taxonomy of Plant Pathogenic Bacteria Committee; http://www.isppweb.org/names_bacterial.asp); [1]].
