is a plant pathogen that causes fire blight disease in Rosaceous plants, such as pear and apple. To develop an effective biocontrol method to suppress , a total of 16 bacteria were isolated from pear orchard soil in China and screened for antagonistic activity . Among them, 9 isolates that exhibited antagonistic activity against were identified, including , (previously known as ) and based on the partial 16S rDNA sequence analysis and similarity search.

To promote its application, systematic investigation on the corrosion performance and corrosion residual strength of HPDC AM50+1Ce and AM60 was carried out. The corrosion of HPDC AM50+1Ce was more uniform, while the pitting corrosion of AM60 was more severe, and the mechanical properties of HPDC AM60 was more sensitive to corrosion.
