Summary In this work we have studied the antagonistic interactions existing among cultivable bacteria isolated from three ecological niches (rhizospheric soil, roots and stem/leaves) of the traditional natural medicinal plant E chinacea purpurea . The three compartments harboured different taxonomic assemblages of strains, which were previously reported to display different antibiotic resistance patterns, suggesting the presen...

Summary The A ntarctic strain P seudoalteromonas haloplanktis TAC 125 is one of the model organisms of cold‐adapted bacteria and is currently exploited as a new alternative expression host for numerous biotechnological applications. Here, we investigated several metabolic features of this strain through in silico modelling and functional integration of –omics data. A genome‐scale metabolic model of P . haloplanktis TAC 125 was...
