Antibacterial Activity of Phenolic Compounds Against the Phytopathogen Xylella fastidiosa
Xylella fastidiosa is a pathogenic bacterium that causes diseases in many crop species, which leads to considerable economic loss. Phenolic compounds (a group of secondary metabolites) are widely d...
Combination of Chromogenic Differential Medium and estA-Specific PCR for Isolation and Detection of Phytopathogenic Xanthomonas spp.
A xanthomonad differential medium (designated Xan-D medium) was developed, on which streaks and colonies of xanthomonads, including 13 species of the genus Xanthomonas, turned wet-shining yellow-gr...
Comparative analysis of differentially expressed sequence tags of sweet orange and mandarin infected with Xylella fastidiosa
The Citrus ESTs Sequencing Project (CitEST) conducted at Centro APTA Citros Sylvio Moreira/IAC has identified and catalogued ESTs representing a set of citrus genes expressed under relevant stress ...
Comparative and functional genomic analyses of the pathogenicity of phytopathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris
Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris (Xcc) is the causative agent of crucifer black rot disease, which causes severe losses in agricultural yield world-wide. This bacterium is a model organis...
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...
EFFECT OF CONTACT AND SYSTEMIC INSECTICIDES ON THE SHARPSHOOTER BUCEPHALOGONIA XANTHOPHIS (HEMIPTERA: CICADELLIDAE), A VECTOR OF XYLELLA FASTIDIOSA IN CITRUS
The knockdown and toxic effects of insecticides of different chemical groups and modes of action registered for citrus in Brazil were investigated for effective control of Bucephalogonia xanthophis...
Effects of the antimicrobial peptide gomesin on the global gene expression profile, virulence and biofilm formation of Xylella fastidiosa
In the xylem vessels of susceptible hosts, such as citrus trees, Xylella fastidiosa forms biofilm-like colonies that can block water transport, which appears to correlate to disease symptoms. Besid...
Estimation of the economic impact of Xylella fastidiosa in Aragon
The appearance of Xylella fastidiosa in 2017 in the Iberian Peninsula has caused growing concern in regions such as Aragon, with a large area of crops sensitive to bacteria and of great economic im...
Genetic relationships among strains of Xanthomonas fragariae based on random amplified polymorphic DNA PCR, repetitive extragenic palindromic PCR, and enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus PCR data and generation of multiplexed PCR primers useful for the identification of this phytopathogen
Genetic relationships among 25 isolates of Xanthomonas fragariae from diverse geographic regions were determined by three PCR methods that rely on different amplification priming strategies: random...
Genome sequence of the enterobacterial phytopathogen Erwinia carotovora subsp atroseptica and characterization of virulence factors
The bacterial family Enterobacteriaceae is notable for its well studied human pathogens, including Salmonella, Yersinia, Shigella, and Escherichia spp. However, it also contains several plant patho...
Genomic comparison of the endophyte Herbaspirillum seropedicae SmR1 and the phytopathogen Herbaspirillum rubrisubalbicans M1 by suppressive subtractive hybridization and partial genome sequencing
Herbaspirillum rubrisubalbicans M1 causes the mottled stripe disease in sugarcane cv. B-4362. Inoculation of this cultivar with Herbaspirillum seropedicae SmR1 does not produce disease symptoms. A ...
Global gene expression analysis of the heat shock response in the phytopathogen Xylella fastidiosa
Xylella fastidiosa is a phytopathogenic bacterium that is responsible for diseases in many economically important crops. Although different strains have been studied, little is known about X. fasti...
