High relevanceInteraction between gfp-tagged Pseudomonas tolaasii P12 and Pleurotus eryngii.
Pleurotus eryngii
Key points
- Pseudomonas sp., (formerly reported as strain P12) which produces brown blotch disease symptoms on Pleurotus eryngii, has been identified as P. tolaasii based on its biochemical, physiological properties and 16S rDNA sequence analysis
- This pathogen is able to infect basidiocarps when surface-inoculated on mushroom casing soil
- However, infected basidiocarps develop the brown blotch disease symptoms when the pathogen concentration in the fruiting body tissues is higher than 10(4) cfu/g d.w
- Using gfp-tagged cells and confocal laser scanning microscopy, it was possible to show that the pathogen has the ability to tightly attach to the hyphae of Pleurotus eryngii

This pathogen is able to infect basidiocarps when surface-inoculated on mushroom casing soil. However, infected basidiocarps develop the brown blotch disease symptoms when the pathogen concentration in the fruiting body tissues is higher than 10(4) cfu/g d.w. Using gfp-tagged cells and confocal laser scanning microscopy, it was possible to show that the pathogen has the ability to tightly attach to the hyphae of Pleurotus eryngii.
