Detection of Xylella fastidiosa in potential insect vectors by immunomagnetic separation and nested polymerase chain reaction

A sensitive and specific assay for detecting Xylella fastidiosa in potential insect vectors was developed. This assay involves immunomagnetic separation of the bacteria from the insect, followed by...

Genetic relationships among strains of Xanthomonas fragariae based on random amplified polymorphic DNA PCR, repetitive extragenic palindromic PCR, and enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus PCR data and generation of multiplexed PCR primers useful for the identification of this phytopathogen

Genetic relationships among 25 isolates of Xanthomonas fragariae from diverse geographic regions were determined by three PCR methods that rely on different amplification priming strategies: random...

Sequence analysis of a 1296-nucleotide plasmid from Xylella fastidiosa

A cryptic plasmid from Xylella fastidiosa strain ATCC 35868 was cloned, sequenced, and the sequence entered into GenBank (U71220). The plasmid is 1296 nucleotides in length with 55% GC content and ...
