These findings support the assumption of a stable association between the Pseudomonas spp. strains and S. latissima in the Baltic Sea. The metabolite profile of the Pseudomonas spp. comprised monoacetylphloroglucinol, 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol, pyoluteorin and several rhizoxins, which exhibited broad-spectrum antibiotic activities against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria as well as against fungi. Because the antibiotic activities included the inhibition of the 2 algal pathogens Pseudoalteromonas elyakovii and Algicola bacteriolytica, we propose a beneficial effect of these marine pseudomonads on their host S. latissima.}, year = {2012}, booktitle = {Aquatic Microbial Ecology}, journal = {Aquatic Microbial Ecology}, volume = {67}, number = {3}, pages = {239-249}, month = {November}, url = {http://oceanrep.geomar.de/19108/}, note = {WOS:000310730700005}, }
