Bacterial diversity in potential cicadellids vectors of Xylella fastidiosa Wells et al. in coffee plants in Puerto Rico
Bacteria from head and body tissues of three potential insect vectors of Xylella fastidiosa (Xf), Apogonalia spp., Hortensia similis and Caribovia coffeacola, were isolated in periwinkle wilt (PW) ...
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...
Interaction between endophytic bacteria from citrus plants and the phytopathogenic bacteria Xylella fastidiosa, causal agent of citrus-variegated chlorosis
To isolate endophytic bacteria and Xylella fastidiosa and also to evaluate whether the bacterial endophyte community contributes to citrus-variegated chlorosis (CVC) status in sweet orange (Citrus ...
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...
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...
