"Pseudomonas tolaasii" is a Gram-negative soil bacteria that is the causal agent of bacterial blotch on cultivated mushrooms ("Agaricus bisporus") [cite journal |author=Brodey, "et al." |title=Bacterial blotch disease of the cultivated mushroom is caused by an ion channel forming lipodepsipeptide toxin |journal=Molecular Plant Microbe Interactions |volume=1 |pages=407–411 |year=1991 |doi=10.1094/MPMI-4-407] . It is known to produce a toxin, called tolaasin, which is responsible for the brown blotches associated with the disease [cite journal |author=Soler-Rivas, "et al." |title=Biochemical and physiological aspects of brown blotch disease of "Agaricus bisporus". |journal=FEMS Microbiol Reviews |volume=23 |pages=591–614 |year=1999 |pmid=10525168 |doi=10.1111/j.1574-6976.1999.tb00415.x ] . It also demonstrates hemolytic activity, causing lysis of erythrocytes [cite journal |author=Munsch P, Alatossava T. |title=Several pseudomonads, associated with the cultivated mushrooms "Agaricus bisporus" or "Pleurotus" sp., are hemolytic |journal=Microbiol Res |volume=157 |pages=311–315 |year=2002 |pmid=12501995 |doi=10.1078/0944-5013-00159] . Based on 16S rRNA analysis, "P. tolaasii" has been placed in the "P. fluorescens" group [cite journal |author=Anzai, "et al." |title=Phylogenetic affiliation of the pseudomonads based on 16S rRNA sequence |journal=Int J Syst Evol Microbiol |volume=50 (Pt 4) |pages=1563–89 |year=2000, Jul |pmid=10939664] .
