Optimisation of the production of nanovesicles from phytopathogenic bacterial species

The use of bacteria derived nanovesicles (BDNs) for the development of medical treatments have been well documented in literature. However, the use of BDNs derived from phytopathogenic bacterial species for the treatment of plants has not yet been well studied. This project aimed to optimise a pr...
