Background
Monoacetylphloroglucinol (MAPG), small molecular weight phenolic metabolite, is produced via bacteria including Pseudomonas strains. MAPG is acetylated to form the broad-spectrum antibiotic, 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) by MAPG acetyltransferase. In addition, MAPG exerts fairly weak potency when exhibiting a broad range of antibiotic activity. Even though weakly active, it seems that MAPG is essential in the biocontrol of plant diseases by some Pseudomonas strains [1]. In vitro: Up to now, in vitro study of MAPG is still in the development stage.In vivo: Up to now, in vivo study of MAPG is still in the development stage.
