Detection of a Single-Copy Plasmid, pXFSL21, in Xylella fastidiosa Strain Stag's Leap with Two Toxin-Antitoxin Systems Using Next-Generation Sequencing
Plasmids are important genetic elements contributing to bacterial evolution and environmental adaptation. Xylella fastidiosa is a nutritionally fastidious Gram-negative bacterium causing economical...
In vitro Determination of Extracellular Proteins from Xylella fastidiosa
The phytopathogen Xylella fastidiosa causes economic losses in important agricultural crops. Xylem vessel occlusion caused by biofilm formation is the major mechanism underlying the pathogenicity o...
Persistence in Phytopathogenic Bacteria: Do We Know Enough?
Phytopathogenic bacteria affect a wide range of crops worldwide and have a negative impact in agriculture due to their associated economic losses and environmental impacts. Together with other biot...
The MqsRA Toxin-Antitoxin System from Xylella fastidiosa Plays a Key Role in Bacterial Fitness, Pathogenicity, and Persister Cell Formation
Through the formation of persister cells, bacteria exhibit tolerance to multidrug and other environmental stresses without undergoing genetic changes. The toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are involved ...
