This study shows that Pantoea ananatis triggers systemic resistance in Arabidopsis through root sensing via the LORE receptor kinase, using HAAs and 3-OH-C10 as MAMPs.

The paper identifies methylated rhamnolipids as the biosurfactant produced by B. cenocepacia and shows that rhamnolipid methylation is widespread across the Burkholderia cepacia complex.

This study identifies three bacterial strains that promote tomato growth and control bacterial canker caused by Clavibacter michiganensis, with two strains showing significant disease reduction and growth enhancement.

This paper identifies MexT-regulated factors that modulate quorum sensing hierarchy in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, revealing alternative QS architectures in clinical isolates.

The paper identifies taxonomically diverse rhizobacteria that induce systemic resistance in tomato plants against Botrytis, revealing varied mechanisms of action.

This study confirms that PqsE is conserved and functionally relevant across diverse Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains, highlighting its role in quorum sensing and virulence.

This study identifies quorum sensing and adenosine DNA methylation as two antagonistic systems controlling phase variation in Burkholderia ambifaria clinical isolates.

This study shows that lower temperatures increase RhlR activity in Pseudomonas aeruginosa through enhanced stability of the RhlR/C4-HSL/PqsE complex, affecting virulence factor expression.

The paper identifies PfsE as a Pf phage protein that inhibits PQS quorum sensing and type IV pili extension, enhancing viral replication and protecting the host from competing phages.
