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...
Emerging plant diseases under a changing climate scenario: Threats to our global food supply
Intersubspecific Recombination in Xylella fastidiosa Strains Native to the United States: Infection of Novel Hosts Associated with an Unsuccessful Invasion
The bacterial pathogen Xylella fastidiosa infects xylem and causes disease in many plant species in the Americas. Different subspecies of this bacterium and different genotypes within subspecies in...
Natural Competence and Recombination in the Plant Pathogen Xylella fastidiosa
Homologous recombination is one of many forces contributing to the diversity, adaptation, and emergence of pathogens. For naturally competent bacteria, transformation is one possible route for the ...
Phylogenomics and Molecular Signatures for Species from the Plant Pathogen-Containing Order Xanthomonadales
The species from the order Xanthomonadales, which harbors many important plant pathogens and some human pathogens, are currently distinguished primarily on the basis of their branching in the 16S r...
The complete nucleotide sequence and environmental distribution of the cryptic, conjugative, broad-host-range plasmid pIPO2 isolated from bacteria of the wheat rhizosphere
Plasmid pIPO2 is a cryptic, conjugative, broad-host-range plasmid isolated from the wheat rhizosphere. it efficiently self-transfers between alpha, beta and gamma Proteobacteria and has a mobilizin...
