Abstract
Research was conducted to show that PhzI is responsible for the production of N-hexanoyl-homoserine lactone and that N-hexanoyl-homoserine lactone is needed for phenazine gene expression by Pseudomonas aurefaciens 30-84 in the wheat rhizosphere. Wheat seeds were surface sterilized while supernatant extracts were harvested from cultures grown for three to four days. Results showed that quorum sensing-mediated control of phenazine biosynthesis in P. aureofaciens occurs within the wheat rhizosphere.
