Abstract
Pseudomonas protegens is the species of plant growthpromoting bacteria, which is widely used in agriculture. In article, previously unknown virulence factors of this microorganism are revealed. When researching the three bacterial genomes P. protegens, genes encoding adherence, antiphagocytosis, iron uptake, biofilm formation, immune evasion, serum resistance, and other virulence traits have been found. More research is needed to learn the role of predicted virulence factors in phytopathology and medicine.
