Pseudomonas fluorescens are gram-negative rod shaped bacteria that improve plant health and nutrition (Rodri-guez and Pfender, 1997; de Bruijn et al., 2007). Most studies describe P. fluorescens as a psychrotrophic bacterium unable to grow at temperatures greater than 32ºC and therefore as an avirulent bacterium to humans (Naseby et al., 2001). It has many positive effects on the plant health as it enhances the production of plant growth hormones, it boosts the suppression of pathogens (especially fungi and oomycetes), and it directs the elicita-tion of plant defense responses (Haas and Defago, 2005).
