Analysis of the genome-wide variations among multiple strains of the plant pathogenic bacterium Xylella fastidiosa
The Gram-negative, xylem-limited phytopathogenic bacterium Xylella fastidiosa is responsible for causing economically important diseases in grapevine, citrus and many other plant species. Despite i...
Comparative analysis of ESTs involved in grape responses to Xylella fastidiosa infection
The gram-negative bacterium Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) is the causal agent of Pierce's disease (PD) in grape as well as diseases of many fruit and ornamental plants. The current molecular breeding eff...
Impact of phenolic compounds on progression of Xylella fastidiosa infections in susceptible and PdR1-locus containing resistant grapevines
Pierce's disease is of major concern for grapevine (Vitis vinifera) production wherever the bacterial pathogenXylella fastidiosaand its vectors are present. Long-term management includes the depl...
PCR Screening for Xylella fastidiosa in Grape Genebank Accessions Collected in the Southeastern United States
The National Clonal Germplasm Repository (NCGR) in Davis, California (CA) maintains the United States collection of warm-climate grapes in a field genebank in Winters, CA. This collection includes ...
Transcriptional regulation of the grape cytochrome P450 monooxygenase gene CYP736B expression in response to Xylella fastidiosa infection
Plant cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYP) mediate synthesis and metabolism of many physiologically important primary and secondary compounds that are related to plant defense against a range of pa...
Use of SSR markers to assess identity, pedigree, and diversity of cultivated muscadine grapes
The North American muscadine grape (Museadinia rotundifolia Small) is a valuable source of resistance to powdery mildew [Uncinula necator (Schw.) Burr], root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne Goeldi), dag...
Using Marker-Assisted Selection to Breed Pierce's Disease-Resistant Grapes
Pierce's disease (PD), caused by the bacterium Xylella fastidiosa, is ail important disease of grapevines in California, across the southern United States, and into South America. In regions where ...
Vascular Occlusions in Grapevines with Pierce's Disease Make Disease Symptom Development Worse
Vascular occlusions are common structural modifications made by many plant species in response to pathogen infection. However, the functional role(s) of occlusions in host plant disease resistance/...
Xylella fastidiosa population dynamics in grapevine genotypes differing in susceptibility to Pierce's disease
The xylem-limited bacterium Xylella fastidiosa is the causal agent of Pierce's disease (PD) in grapevines, for which breeding resistant cultivars will be a long-term management strategy that involv...
