Fluorescent pseudomonas M18, one of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria which can inhibit growth of several phytopathogenes, produces several secondary metabolites including antibiotics phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (PCA) and pyoluteorin (Plt). The rpoD gene encoding the housekeeping sigma factor sigma70 was cloned and sequenced from M18. Through sequencing and homogeneous comparison, the deduced RpoD amino acid sequence between M18 strain and Pseudomonasfluorescens CHAO shows 100% identity. It indicates that rpoD gene is very conserved in different members of fluorescent pseudomonads. The rpoD gene was placed downstream of the constitutive Ptac promoter in the shuttle vector pME6032 between E. coli and Pseudomonas fluorescens and the recombinant plasmid was introduced into M18. It was found that the time of both PCA and Plt began to accumulate was 4 and 8 hours earlier and the yield of these antibiotics was increased one and six times more respectively in M18 in comparison with the control.

Three fluorescent bacterial strains, K1, K13 and K18, were obtained from watermelon () foliage symptomatic of bacterial leaf spot of cucurbits in Florida. The strains underwent phenotypic characterization, including LOPAT (levan production, oxidase activity, pectolytic activity on potato, arginine dihydrolase production and hypersensitive response (HR) on both tobacco and tomato) and pathogenicity testing on watermelon and squash seedlings. Whole-genome sequencing of the isolates was performed, and multi-locus sequence analysis (MLSA) utilizing housekeeping genes , , and placed the isolates into two distinct clades within the genus.

Three RpoD-family sigma factors, RpoD, RpoS, and RpoH, play critical roles in transcriptional regulation in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium under heat shock conditions. However, the genome-wide regulatory mechanisms of these sigma factors in response to heat stress have remained elusive. In this study, we comprehensively identified 2,319, 2,226, and 213 genome-wide binding sites for RpoD, RpoS, and RpoH, respectively, under sublethal heat shock conditions (42°C).

Article Synopsis
- Antarctica is facing antibiotic resistance challenges due to human activities, which threatens its traditionally untouched environment.
- The CAS19 strain, identified as Pseudomonas migulae, was isolated from Ardley Island's lake water and showed notable characteristics including growth in varying temperatures and pH levels, along with specific enzymatic activities.
- This strain demonstrated resistance to multiple antibiotics and heavy metals, revealing a significant increase in resistance-related gene expressions when exposed to antibiotics, highlighting potential concerns about human impact on microbial ecosystems in Antarctica.
