Philpense Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Have a modest background in molecular biology and presently considering a project that requires some knowledge of botany. Specifically, I seek details on the epiphytic relation between the microbe pseudomonas fluorescens and flowering plants such as the orchid and rose. What would be the relationship? Commensalism or Mutualism? What is the nutrient source for Pseudomas? Life Span? What becomes of the metabolic end products from Pseudomonas? Does the plant alter its surface properties to accommodate Pseudomonas? Much thanks for any guidance in this regard as I await reply.

PhilGeis Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Though described in the below as promoting plant growth, suggest you approach the interaction in a microbiome context. http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/17429140600907043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
