A New Resource for Research and Risk Analysis: The Updated European Food Safety Authority Database of Xylella spp. Host Plant Species
Following a series of requests for scientific advice from the European Commission starting in 2013, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) conducted a pest risk assessment and created a comprehe...
Complete sequence and evolutionary genomic analysis of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa transposable bacteriophage D3112
Bacteriophage D3112 represents one of two distinct groups of transposable phage found in the clinically relevant, opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. To further our understanding of tran...
Genome-wide analysis of Xylella fastidiosa: implications for detection and strain relationships
The xylem limited plant pathogenic bacterium Xylella fastidiosa causes economically important diseases on agronomic, horticultural and landscape plants. This review includes the current status of p...
Genomics-based design of defined growth media for the plant pathogen Xylella fastidiosa
Based on the genetic analysis of the phytopathogen Xylella fastidiosa genome, five media with defined composition were developed and the growth abilities of this fastidious prokaryote were evaluate...
H-1-NMR Metabolite Fingerprinting Analysis Reveals a Disease Biomarker and a Field Treatment Response in Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca-Infected Olive Trees
Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca is a xylem-limited bacterial phytopathogen currently found associated on many hectares with the olive quick decline syndrome in the Apulia region (Southern Italy), a...
Metabolic complementarity and genomics of the dual bacterial symbiosis of sharpshooters
Mutualistic intracellular symbiosis between bacteria and insects is a widespread phenomenon that has contributed to the global success of insects. The symbionts, by provisioning nutrients lacking f...
Molecular modeling databases: A new way in the search of protein targets for drug development
DBMODELING is a relational database of annotated comparative protein structure models and their metabolic pathway characterization. It is focused on enzymes identified in the genomes of Mycobacteri...
Relative predicted protein levels of functionally associated proteins are conserved across organisms
We show that the predicted protein levels of functionally related proteins change in a coordinated fashion over many unicellular organisms. For each protein, we created a profile containing a prote...
Sequence/structural analysis of xylem proteome emphasizes pathogenesis related proteins, chitinases and beta-1, 3-glucanases as key players in grapevine defense against Xylella fastidiosa
Xylella fastidiosa, the causative agent of various plant diseases including Pierce's disease in the US, and Citrus Variegated Chlorosis in Brazil, remains a continual source of concern and economic...
Transcriptome profiling of two olive cultivars in response to infection by the CoDiRO strain of Xylella fastidiosa subsp pauca
The recent Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca (Xfp) outbreak in olive (Olea europaea) groves in southern Italy is causing a destructive disease denoted Olive Quick Decline Syndrome (OQDS). Field obser...
Update of a database of host plants of Xylella fastidiosa: 20 November 2015
Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was tasked to periodically update its database of host plants of Xylella fastidiosa which was published in April 2015. An extensive literature...
Update of the Xylella spp. host plant database
Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA periodically updates the database on the host plants of Xylella spp. While previous editions of the database (2015 and 2016) dealt with the sp...
