Antimicrobial and extracellular enzyme activity of Lysobacter. Antimicrobial activity against a) Rhizoctonia solani on R2A medium, and b) Xanthomonas campestris pv campestris (Xcc) on 1/5th strength Potato Dextrose Agar. The Lysobacter strains were spot inoculated on medium containing Xcc cells. c Chitinase activity on R2A medium supplemented with 0.2 % colloidal chitin. d siderophore production on CAS medium. When iron is chelated, the medium turns from blue to orange. e lipase activity on R2A medium supplemented with 0.01 % CaCl2 and 1 % Tween 80. Lipase activity is visible as a precipitation of calcium crystals surrounding the colony. 1: L. antibioticus ATCC29479; 2: L. antibioticus 76; 3: L. capsici 55; 4: L. gummosus 3.2.11; 5: L. enzymogenes C3; 6: L. enzymogenes DCA is a mutant of L. enzymogenes strain C3 with a Tn5 insertion in the gene encoding the global regulator Clp
