A high-molecular-weight outer membrane protein of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae exhibits similarity to non-fimbrial adhesins of animal pathogenic bacteria and is required for optimum virulence
Transposon insertions in a novel 3.798 kb open reading frame (ORF) of the rice pathogen, Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) cause virulence deficiency and altered colony/lawn morphology. This ORF ...
Bacterial pathogenesis of plants: future challenges from a microbial perspective: Challenges in Bacterial Molecular Plant Pathology
Plant infection is a complicated process. On encountering a plant, pathogenic microorganisms must first adapt to life on the epiphytic surface, and survive long enough to initiate an infection. Res...
BREEDING, GENETIC AND GENOMIC OF CITRUS FOR DISEASE RESISTANCE
Although the citriculture is one of the most important economic activities in Brazil, it is based on a small number of varieties. This fact has contributed for the vulnerability of the culture rega...
Comparative analysis of different molecular and serological methods for detection of Xylella fastidiosa in blueberry
Bacterial leaf scorch, caused by Xylella fastidiosa, is a major threat to blueberry production in the southeastern United States. Management of this devastating disease is challenging and often req...
Comparative genomics of two Leptospira interrogans serovars reveals novel insights into physiology and pathogenesis
Leptospira species colonize a significant proportion of rodent populations worldwide and produce life-threatening infections in accidental hosts, including humans. Complete genome sequencing of Lep...
Comparison of conventional and novel molecular diagnostic methods for detection of Xylella fastidiosa from insect vectors
The efficiency of three diagnostic methods, i.e. PCR, real-time PCR and LAMP, for detection of Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) genomic DNA from Philaenus spumarius (Ps) and Neophilaenus campestris (Nc) i...
Data_Sheet_1_Molecular Profiling of Pierces Disease Outlines the Response Circuitry of Vitis vinifera to Xylella fastidiosa Infection
Pierces disease is a major threat to grapevines caused by the bacterium Xylella fastidiosa. Although devoid of a type 3 secretion system commonly employed by bacterial pathogens to deliver effector...
DETECTION OF XYLELLA FASTIDIOSA IN OLIVE TREES BY MOLECULAR AND SEROLOGICAL METHODS
Xylella fastidiosa has recently been identified in the Apulian province of Lecce (south-eastern Italy) in olive trees affected by a devastating disease denoted Olive Quick Decline Syndrome (OQDS), ...
Differentiation of Xylella fastidiosa Strains via Multilocus Sequence Analysis of Environmentally Mediated Genes (MLSA-E)
Isolates of the plant pathogen Xylella fastidiosa are genetically very similar, but studies on their biological traits have indicated differences in virulence and infection symptomatology. Taxonomi...
EU-XF- PT-2017-02: Proficiency testing for the evaluation of molecular and serological diagnosis of Xylella fastidiosa
Proficiency test (PT) is a way in which the performance and competence of laboratories are evaluated and assessed. In proficiency testing, standardized samples are prepared with known status regar...
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...
Genetic differences between two strains of Xylella fastidiosa revealed by suppression subtractive hybridization
Suppression subtractive hybridization was used to rapidly identify IS gene differences between a citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC) strain and a Pierce's disease of grape (PD) strain of Xylella fast...
