Ecological role of cyclic lipopeptides from plant-beneficial Pseudomonas
Cyclic lipopeptides (CLPs) are specialized bacterial metabolites that show amazing structural diversity. Collectively, non-pathogenic Pseudomonas bacteria produce a variety of CLPs. In this study, representatives of known CLP families and novel CLPs discovered by genome mining will be functionally characterized with respect to their contribution to bacterial motility, biofilm formation, and phytopathogen inhibition.
