DETECTION AND IDENTIFICATION OF PHYTOPATHOGENIC XANTHOMONAS STRAINS BY AMPLIFICATION OF DNA-SEQUENCES RELATED TO THE HRP GENES OF XANTHOMONAS-CAMPESTRIS PV VESICATORIA
Three pairs of oligonucleotide primers specific for different regions of the hrp gene (hypersensitive reaction and pathogenicity) cluster of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria were designed and...
Evolutionary change - patterns and processes
The present review considered: (a) the factors that conditioned the early transition from non-life to life; (b) genome structure and complexity in prokaryotes, eukaryotes, and organelles; (c) compa...
Genomes-based phylogeny of the genus Xanthomonas
The genus Xanthomonas comprises several plant pathogenic bacteria affecting a wide range of hosts. Despite the economic, industrial and biological importance of Xanthomonas, the classification and ...
Global features of sequences of bacterial chromosomes, plasmids and phages revealed by analysis of oligonucleotide usage patterns
Oligonucleotide frequencies were shown to be conserved signatures for bacterial genomes, however, the underlying constraints have yet not been resolved in detail. In this paper we analyzed oligonuc...
Hidden Markov models applied to a subsequence of the Xylella fastidiosa genome
Dependencies in DNA sequences are frequently modeled using Markov models. However, Markov chains cannot account for heterogeneity that may be present in different regions of the same DNA sequence. ...
Identification of Xanthomonas fragariae field isolates by rep-PCR genomic fingerprinting
Xanthomonas fragariae, the causal organism of angular leaf spot on cultivated strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa), is an economically important pathogen of nursery stock in California. The ability to ...
