Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 (Pto DC3000) is the cause of bacterial speck in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). This bacterium represents an important model in molecular plant pathology. Tomato is one of the most important vegetable crops worldwide. The effective controls of bacterial speck are currently explored in crop plants. In response to the high environmental pollution caused by toxic agrochemicals, new ecological alternatives such as biological control are being developed and implemented for the control of plant diseases?
