In previous research, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by various bacteria into the chemosphere were suggested to play a significant role in the antagonistic interactions between microorganisms occupying the same ecological niche and between bacteria and target eukaryotes. Moreover, a number of volatiles released by bacteria were reported to suppress quorum-sensing cell-to-cell communication in bacteria, and to stimulate plant growth. Here, volatiles produced by  Pseudomonas  and  Serratia  strains isolated mainly from the soil or rhizosphere exhibited bacteriostatic action on phytopathogenic  Agrobacterium tumefaciens  and fungi and demonstrated a killing effect on cyanobacteria, flies ( Drosophila melanogaster ), and nematodes ( Caenorhabditis elegans ). VOCs emitted by the rhizospheric  Pseudomonas chlororaphis  strain 449 and by  Serratia proteamaculans  strain 94 isolated from spoiled meat were identified using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis, and the effects of the main headspace compounds—ketones (2-nonanone, 2-heptanone, 2-undecanone) and dimethyl disulfide—were inhibitory toward the tested microorganisms, nematodes, and flies. The data confirmed the role of bacterial volatiles as important compounds involved in interactions between organisms under natural ecological conditions.
