A PCR-based assay targeting hcnAB, essential genes for hydrogen cyanide (HCN) biosynthesis, allowed sensitive detection of HCN+ pseudomonads between logs 2.9 and 3.5 cells per PCR reaction tube. RFLP analysis revealed 13 allele combinations among selected 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol-producing (Phl(+))HCN+, and 13 alleles in Phl(-) HCN+ strains from a global collection. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V.
