- Intervention effect Pseudomonas brassicacearum significantly reduced J. vulgaris seedling root growth.
- Intervention effect Serratia plymuthica significantly reduced J. vulgaris seedling root growth.
- Intervention effect Bacterial treatment left seed germination unaffected.
- Observation The negative bacterial effects also occurred across other forb species.
- Intervention effect Bacillus injection led to the highest Tyria jacobaeae caterpillar mortality.
- Intervention effect Ingestion of Bacillus had no effect on T. jacobaeae caterpillars.
- Intervention effect Bacterial inoculation significantly affected T. jacobaeae preference.
- Intervention effect P. syringae increased T. jacobaeae preference significantly.
- Intervention effect A Bacillus strain increased T. jacobaeae preference significantly.
- Recommendation Lack of host specificity restricts the two root bacteria for biocontrol.
