This project intends to characterise the genetic basis for colonisation and persistence on plant seeds and roots by biocontrol bacteria. Pseudomonas biocontrol bacteria offer the potential to suppress agricultural crop pathogens without the need for expensive and potentially harmful agrochemicals. However, the application of these bacteria in the field is currently limited. A key reason for this is their unreliable capacity for root colonisation and persistence. The project aims to analyse the factors critical for plant colonisation. These analyses may facilitate the successful application of biocontrol bacteria for protecting Australian crops from pathogens.

本项目旨在阐明生防细菌在植物种子和根部定殖和持久性的遗传基础。假单胞菌属生物防治细菌提供了抑制农作物病原体的潜力，而不需要昂贵且潜在有害的农用化学品。然而，这些细菌在该领域的应用目前受到限制。一个关键的原因是它们不可靠的根殖民和持久性的能力。该项目旨在分析植物定植的关键因素。这些分析可能有助于成功应用生防细菌保护澳大利亚作物免受病原体的侵害。
