Analysis of 16S rRNA and mxaF genes revealing insights into Methylobacterium niche-specific plant association

The genus Methylobacterium comprises pink-pigmented facultative methylotrophic (PPFM) bacteria, known to be an important plant-associated bacterial group. Species of this group, described as plant-...

Biotechnological and Agronomic Potential of Endophytic Pink-Pigmented Methylotrophic Methylobacterium spp.

The genus Methylobacterium is composed of pink-pigmented facultative methylotrophic (PPFM) bacteria, which are able to synthesize carotenoids and grow on reduced organic compounds containing one ca...

Detection of siderophores in endophytic bacteria Methylobacterium spp. associated with Xylella fastidiosa subsp pauca

The objective of this work was to study the production of siderophores by endophytic bacteria Methylobacterium spp., which occupy the same ecological niche as Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca (Xfp) ...

Effect of bacterial inoculation, plant genotype and developmental stage on root-associated and endophytic bacterial communities in potato (Solanum tuberosum)

Beneficial bacteria interact with plants by colonizing the rhizosphere and roots followed by further spread through the inner tissues, resulting in endophytic colonization. The major factors contri...

Mass spectrometry characterization of endophytic bacterium Curtobacterium sp strain ER1/6 isolated from Citrus sinensis

The bacteria of the genus Curtobacterium are usually seen as plant pathogen, but some species have been identified as endophytes of different crops and could as such present a potential for disease...

Methylobacterium-plant interaction genes regulated by plant exudate and quorum sensing molecules

Bacteria from the genus Methylobacterium interact symbiotically (endophytically and epiphytically) with different plant species. These interactions can promote plant growth or induce systemic resis...

Microbial interactions: ecology in a molecular perspective

The microorganism-microorganism or microorganism-host interactions are the key strategy to colonize and establish in a variety of different environments. These interactions involve all ecological a...

The diversity of citrus endophytic bacteria and their interactions with Xylella fastidiosa and host plants

The bacterium Xylella fastidiosa is the causal agent of citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC) and has been associated with important losses in commercial orchards of all sweet orange [Citrus sinensis (...

THE EFFECT OF DIFFERENT GROWTH REGIMES ON THE ENDOPHYTIC BACTERIAL COMMUNITIES OF THE FERN, Dicksonia sellowiana HOOK (DICKSONIACEAE)

Endophytic bacteria associated with the fern Dicksonia sellowiana were investigated. The bacterial communities from the surface-sterilized pinnae and rachis segments of the plants from the Brazilia...

The endophyte Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens reduces symptoms caused by Xylella fastidiosa in Catharanthus roseus

Citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC) is a disease of the sweet orange [Citrus sinensis (L.)], which is caused by Xylella fastidiosa subsp: pauca, a phytopathogenic bacterium that has been shown to inf...
