A zinc, copper and citric acid biocomplex shows promise for control of Xylella fastidiosa subsp pauca in olive trees in Apulia region (southern Italy)
The bacterium Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca is associated with the “olive quick decline syndrome” in the Apulia region of southern Italy. To investigate control of this phytopathogen, a compound ...
Colony morphology of Xylella fastidiosa almond leaf scorch strains
Xylella fastidiosa is the causal agent of almond leaf scorch disease (ALSD), which is currently reemerging in California as a potential threat to almond (Prunus dulcis) production. We previously re...
Detection and Characterization of pXFSL21, a Novel Single-Copy Plasmid from Xylella fastidiosa Strain Stag's Leap
Xylella fastidiosa Strain Stag’s Leap, originally isolated from Napa Valley, California, is highly virulent in causing Pierce’s Disease (PD) of grapevine. Plasmids are extrachromosomal genetic elem...
Detection of a Single-Copy Plasmid, pXFSL21, in Xylella fastidiosa Strain Stag's Leap with Two Toxin-Antitoxin Systems Using Next-Generation Sequencing
Plasmids are important genetic elements contributing to bacterial evolution and environmental adaptation. Xylella fastidiosa is a nutritionally fastidious Gram-negative bacterium causing economical...
GENETIC-VARIATION AMONG XYLELLA-FASTIDIOSA STRAINS
Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis was used to determine similarities and differences in DNAs among 24 strains of Xylella fastidosa from eight different hosts. Two genomic lib...
Grapevine rootstock effects on scion sap phenolic levels, resistance to Xylella fastidiosa infection, and progression of Pierce's disease
The xylem-limited bacterium Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) causes Pierce's disease (PD), an important disease of grapevine, Vitis vinifera L. Grapevine rootstocks were developed to provide increased resis...
Hypervariations of a protease-encoding gene, PD0218 (pspB), in Xylella fastidiosa strains causing almond leaf scorch and Pierce's disease in California
Xylella fastidiosa is a gram-negative plant pathogenic bacterium that causes almond leaf scorch disease (ALSD) and Pierce's disease (PD) of grape in many regions of North America and Mexico. Of the...
Morphological evidence for phages in Xylella fastidiosa
Presumptive phage particles associated with Xylella fastidiosa strain Temecula-1 grown in PW broth were observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in ultrathin sections of bacterial cell-co...
Origins of the Xylella fastidiosa Prophage-Like Regions and Their Impact in Genome Differentiation
Xylella fastidiosa is a Gram negative plant pathogen causing many economically important diseases, and analyses of completely sequenced X. fastidiosa genome strains allowed the identification of ma...
RANDOMLY AMPLIFIED POLYMORPHIC DNA ANALYSIS OF XYLELLA-FASTIDIOSA PIERCES-DISEASE AND OAK LEAF SCORCH PATHOTYPES
Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA analysis was conducted with 14 primers to 17 strains of Xylella fastidiosa, There was a high degree of similarity among the seven Pierce's disease (PD) strains (S...
RAPD fingerprinting Xylella fastidiosa Pierce's disease strains isolated from a vineyard in north Florida
Pierce's disease (PD) strains of Xylella fastidiosa were identified by random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fingerprinting. Two random primers including OPA-03 (agtcagccac) and OPA-11 (caatcgccg...
Whole Genome Sequence of Xylella fastidiosa ATCC 35879(T) and Detection of Genome Rearrangements Within Subsp. fastidiosa
Xylella fastidiosa is a Gram-negative and nutritionally fastidious bacterial pathogen causing Pierce's disease (PD) of grapevine and other plant diseases. X. fastidiosa strain ATCC 35879(T) which...
